Metso and Ideal Development for Manufacturing Industries (IDMI) have signed a 2-year life-cycle contract covering a new phosphate beneficiation plant at the Eshidiya Mine, south of Jordan.

Metso will support the customer in commissioning, ramping up and optimizing the new greenfield site, covering both maintenance and plant operations.

The agreement is an important continuation of Metso’s first phosphate application contract in the Middle East, signed in 2023. Metso was awarded most of the critical equipment supply in the flow sheet, including grinding, flotation, thickeners, filters, pumps, and energy and water efficient Metso UltraFine Series screens. These screens are part of the Metso Plus offering for fine wet screening and represent the first ultra-fine screen installation in a phosphate beneficiation plant. 

“By utilizing Metso’s key technologies and modern and safe commissioning methods at our site, we aim for a strong return on investment, leading to revenue and growth opportunities. Strong collaboration is essential for ensuring safe and productive operations,” says Rami Fakhouri, Managing Director, Ideal Development for Manufacturing Industries.

“We appreciate our customer’s trust in continuing our partnership, and we are glad for this important reference. With Jordan holding the fifth largest phosphate reserves in the world, we are committed to supporting success in this significant industry. Our goal is to ensure a smooth commissioning process and sustained efficient production to not only meet but exceed business targets”, says Rajneesh Mishra, Vice President, Sales and Service, Middle East, Metso.
