The Project

• Project Type: Expansion & Upgrade
• Project Summary:
• The refinery capacity expanded from 6 million tons per annum to 10.5 million. The project also enabled the refinery to attain a higher level of petroleum conversion so that it can derive more high-margin products from the crude oil that it processes.
• Technip's share of the Project covers the engineering, procurement, and construction of a new 45,000 barrels per stream day mild hydrocracking unit, based on Shell Technology.
• Lurgi's share includes the construction of a hydrogen plant, a crude oil distillation unit as well as a vacuum distillation unit.
• ABB has an EPC contract for a diesel desulfurization (HDS) unit licensed from Chevron Lummus Global.
• UHDE delivered a Basic Engineering and Extended Basic Engineering package for a crude and vacuum distillation unit
• Main Contractors: Technip - Turn Key, Lurgi, ABB, Uhde
