MOSCOW (MRC) -- Foster Wheeler has signed a technical services agreement with OJSC Khabarovsk Oil Processing Refinery to provide construction management services for a hydroprocessing project at the refinery in Russia’s Far East, according to Hydrocarbonprocessing.
The terms of the agreement were not disclosed, and bookings will be recorded as work is released by OJSC.
The objective of the project is to produce more higher-value, lighter products. The complex includes a hydrocracker, hydrotreater, hydrogen unit, amine regeneration unit, sour water stripper, sulfur recovery unit, vapor recovery unit, waste water treatment unit, ground flare, tank farm and pump houses.
"Foster Wheeler has been working at this refinery for ten years," said Umberto della Sala, chief operating officer of Foster Wheeler. "We executed the front-end engineering design for the entire hydroprocessing complex, basic design for the hydrogen production facility, design and supply of the steam reformers for the hydrogen plant, and have been providing on-going project management consultancy services as the project progressed into the engineering, procurement and construction phases."
As MRC reported earlier, Lanxess had awarded a subsidiary of Foster Wheeler's Global Engineering and Construction Group an engineering, procurement and construction management (EPCm) contract for a new ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber plant to be built in Jiangsu Province, China. Besides, Foster Wheeler was awarded a contract by Shell Global Solutions to develop the basic engineering package for a world-scale mono-ethylene glycol (MEG) facility at Ras Laffan, Qatar.
Foster Wheeler supplies the CFB scrubber technology globally through its five operating units located in North America, Europe and Asia which are supported by Foster Wheeler’s scrubber technology center, FW Graf Wulff, located in Friedrichsdorf, Germany.
