MOSCOW (MRC) -- Jacobs Engineering Group was awarded a contract by P.T. OKI Pulp and Paper Mills for the design and supply of an integrated chlorine dioxide plant for its pulp mill project in South Sumatra, Indonesia, as per Hydrocarbonprocessing.
Officials did not disclose the contract value, but noted that when completed, the plant is anticipated to produce 172 tpd of chlorine dioxide, making it the largest chlorine dioxide plant ever built.
The plant is scheduled to be commissioned in 2016.
Under the terms of the contract, Jacobs is designing and engineering the plant, supplying key equipment and materials including Jacobs’ proprietary Chemetics equipment, and providing technical services for plant erection, operator training, commissioning and testing.
"We are pleased to build upon our successes in supplying several chlorine dioxide plants to clients in Indonesia since the 1980s, and look forward to providing quality and value to P.T. OKI on this significant project," said Jacobs vice president Terry Hagen.
We remind that, as MRC wrote before, Jacobs Engineering Group has recently received a contract from Borealis to provide engineering, procurement, project management and construction management services for a project to increase cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) capacity at its manufacturing site in Stenungsund, Sweden.
Besides, Jacobs has just received a five-year frame agreement for work at three Borealis facilities in Belgium. Company officials did not disclose the contract value, but noted that the three facilities covered under the contract are Borealis Polymers N.V., Borealis Kallo N.V. and Borealis Antwerpen Compounding N.V.
