    Bateman Litwin awarded EUR75 million EPC contract by Gaz de France 

    Amsterdam, Netherlands, 13 June 2008 - Bateman Litwin N.V. ("Bateman Litwin") is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned subsidiary
Litwin SA has been awarded, as part of a consortium, an engineering construction and procurement ("EPC") contract for the re-development of
an underground gas storage facility, including gas compression and treatment, on behalf of Gaz de France. The project is located in Beynes,
France and has a total contract value of EUR143 million, of which Bateman Litwin's share is approximately EUR75 million.

    The other consortium members are Boccard and Actemium. Boccard is an industrial equipment manufacturer specialising in piping for
complex facilities. Vinci Energies, through its Actemium brand, designs and implements solutions for modernising and improving the
capacities of industrial sites, encompassing electricity, data processing, instrumentation and mechanical solutions. Bateman Litwin, Boccard
and Actemium have all previously worked for the Gaz de France Group on other projects.

    The contract is part of a major investment program by Gaz de France, driven by EU regulations, to restore, adapt and develop its natural
gas underground storage sites. Gaz de France operates 12 natural gas storage sites in France and the Beynes site was the first in operation
in 1956. The new facility should be completed by April 2011.

    Max Abitbol, Chief Executive Officer of Litwin, said: "We are very proud to be part of the consortium selected by Gaz de France for the
rebuilding of this important gas infrastructure in the Ile de France. This project further strengthens our relationship with the Gaz de
France Group."
