New Contract Value and Backlog
Representative New Contracts
New contract value represents the value of the contracts the Group entered into during a specified period. The value of a contract is the amount that the Group expects to receive under the terms of the contract if the contract is performed in accordance with its terms. During the three months ended 31 March 2018, the total value of new contracts entered into by the Group amounted to RMB26.882 billion, and contracts that are representative are as follows:
-
a contract of engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) entered into with Zhongke (Guangdong) Refining & Chemical Co., Ltd.* (中科(廣東)煉化有限公 司) in relation to oil refining, chemical and power station segment of Zhongke integrated refining and petrochemical project with a total contract value of approximately RMB19.532 billion;

-
a construction contract entered into with British company Petrofac Limited in relation to Kuwait new collection center (GC-32) project with a total contract value of approximately RMB867 million.
Backlog
Backlog represents the total estimated contract value of work that remains to be completed pursuant to outstanding contracts as at a certain date, net of estimated value added tax and is based on the Group’s assumption that the relevant contracts will be performed in accordance with their terms. Backlog is not a measure defined by generally accepted accounting principles. Any modification, termination or suspension of these contracts by the Group’s clients may have a substantial and immediate effect on the Group’s backlog. Projects may also remain in the Group’s backlog for an extended period of time beyond what was initially anticipated due to various factors beyond the Group’s control.
