Kuwait Integrated Petroleum Industries Co awards another Al-Zour contract
KIPIC’s grassroots 615,000-b/d Al-Zour integrated refining and petrochemical complex is under construction in southern Kuwai. KIPIC awarded a contract to McDermott International Inc. to deliver basic engineering, technology licensing, and catalyst for an integrated low-pressure recovery (LPR) and olefins conversion technology (OCT) unit.
The McDermott LPR-OCT unit will produce 330,000 tonnes/year of polymer-grade propylene using refinery by-product streams.
The LPR/OCT unit is part of of the site’s broader petrochemical refinery integration project (PRIZe), which will add to the existing refinery site a gasoline block, an aromatics block, OCT unit, polypropylene units, as well as associated utility and offsite installations.
