Technip (PAris, France; www.technip.com) was awarded a contract by CTCI Corp. (Taiwan) to provide basic engineering and proprietary equipment for a grassroots ethylene cracking furnace at the Saudi Kayan Petrochemical Co.’s petrochemical complex in Jubail, Saudi Arabia.
The furnace design will be based on Technip’s proprietary USC furnace technology. Technip was awarded this project for its best proposal and because of its high-capacity, high availability, gas-cracking applications, says the company.
Technip’s operating center in Milton Keynes, U.K., will execute the project, which is scheduled for completion in 2017.
