It was noted in the report that Tubular was overpaid by R1bn, as was Stefanutti Stocks and Swiss-Swedish multinational ABB. Another R735m was said to have been paid to Tenova Mining and Minerals SA while R180m was overpaid to “various site service contracts”. Eskom has said Tubular Construction Projects submitted a proposal that led to a modification. However, whether the items included in the modification provided Eskom with any value and warranted additional money, is now in question. A contract awarded to Tubular for the waste-water treatment plant was also being investigated.
