Engineering and construction company McDermott International Inc. said Friday its Babcock & Wilcox Co. unit has been awarded a contract valued at more than $70 million from Great River Energy.

B&W will engineer and supply a circulating fluidized bed boiler and other emissions-control equipment for Great River Energy's Spiritwood Station, a heat and power plant located near Spiritwood, N.D.

Fluidized bed boilers can burn a wide range of fuels with very low emissions and few environmental impacts.

Commercial operation of Spiritwood is scheduled to begin in March 2010, the company said.
