Nordisk Bergteknik has been selected by NYAB as a strategic subcontractor for an execution contract on Sweden's Norrbotniabanan railway line. Valued at SEK 185 million, the project covers extensive ground preparation works between Bureå and Södra Innervik through 2028.
Nordisk Bergteknik AB has secured a major subcontract valued at approximately SEK 185 million from main contractor NYAB for ground preparation and foundation works on the Norrbotniabanan railway expansion between Bureå and Södra Innervik. The execution contract operates under the Swedish Transport Administration, Trafikverket, as the ultimate project developer and end customer. Commencing in the third quarter of 2026, the assignment spans through completion in 2028 and encompasses Nordisk Bergteknik’s complete service value chain, including rock blasting, crushing, excavation, material transport, and final embankment construction.
This contract highlights the essential role of specialized foundation and rock handling specialists in executing complex regional infrastructure. Nordisk Bergteknik AB is a Sweden-based provider of rock handling and foundation engineering services across Northern Europe, offering expertise in drilling, blasting, and excavation for large-scale development. Main contractor NYAB specializes in engineering, construction, and maintenance services across the energy, infrastructure, and industrial sectors throughout the Nordic region.
The assignment represents a key segment of the broader Norrbotniabanan project, a transformative 270-kilometer coastal railway line designed to connect Umeå and Luleå. With total project costs estimated at over SEK 60 billion at 2025 price levels, this mega-project aims to establish high-capacity, climate-friendly transport links across Sweden’s northern coastal region, which currently lacks daytime rail connections.
For infrastructure investors and industry operators, the order reflects sustained public investment in Scandinavian rail networks and logistics corridors. Securing this substantial contract strengthens Nordisk Bergteknik's long-term order backlog through 2028, reinforcing its strategic position as a preferred partner for large-scale earthworks, foundation engineering, and heavy infrastructure developments across the Nordic region.
