Connected Community, Strong Economy

GULF's infrastructure and logistics business unit plays an important role in advancing Thailand's development in alignment with government policy.

These initiatives are designed to ensure a higher quality of life for the country’s citizens, improve transportation networks, and stimulate economic growth.

To accomplish this, while reducing the burden of government expenditure and public debt, Thailand’s National Strategy promotes Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs). This collaborative approach optimizes government resources and leverages private sector expertise in managing infrastructure projects. As a result, GULF oversees several significant PPP projects aiming at fostering sustainable growth.

Infrastructure and Logistics Project Information

GULF invests in the Bang Pa-In – Nakhon Ratchasima (M6) and Bang Yai – Kanchanaburi (M81) intercity motorway projects through BGSR 6 and BGSR 81, project companies established by the BGSR Consortium.

These two projects span distances of 196 kilometers and 96 kilometers, respectively. They operate under a 30-year PPP contract with the Department of Highways (DOH) and are divided into two parts:

  • Design and Construction work of the motorway system and other related facilities.
  • Operation and Maintenance (O&M) of toll collection, traffic management systems, and other related systems and infrastructures constructed by both the DOH and BGSR.

GULF invests in GPC, the operator of the Laem Chabang port development phase 3 project (Terminal F) under a 35-year PPP contract with the Port Authority of Thailand (PAT).

PAT oversees land reclamation, while GPC manages the Design, Construction, and Operation and Maintenance (O&M) services for Terminal F’s container berths. The project aims to improve container throughput and deploy automation technologies, accommodating at least 4,000,000 TEU of cargo containers annually. This initiative supports Thailand’s role as a regional trade hub.

GULF invests in BSP and BSD through the BSE joint venture, which involves the following:

BSP Power Distribution System Project:

BSP operates the electricity distribution system for the One Bangkok project under a Utility Development Agreement (UDA) converting high-voltage electricity purchased from the Metropolitan Electricity Authority (MEA) to medium voltage for customer use within One Bangkok and directly supplying electricity to the Data Center and the District Cooling System (DCS). BSP's installed capacity reaches approximately 240 MW.

BSD District Cooling System Project:

BSD operates the district cooling system for the One Bangkok project under a Utility Development Agreement (UDA) producing chilled water through a centralized water cooling system and delivering chilled water to customers within One Bangkok as well as directly to the data center. BSD uses electricity supplied by BSP, a mix of recycled water from the central water treatment plant of the One Bangkok and tap water to produce chilled water. BSD operates chillers with a capacity of up to 38,000 refrigeration tons.
