KNPC awards clean fuel project contact to Fluor JV in Kuwait

Kuwait National Petroleum Company (KNPC) has selected a joint venture, formed by Fluor Corporation, Daewoo Engineering & Construction and Hyundai Heavy Industries, as the preferred bidder to design, construct and commission the Mina Abdullah Package 2 Clean Fuels Project in southern Kuwait.
 
For the lump-sum, turnkey project, Fluor will provide engineering, procurement, construction (EPC) services as well as the associated commissioning, start-up and testing support.
 
“This project will increase productivity at the facility while also delivering products that comply with state-of-the-art environmental standards. We are proud to continue our decades-long legacy of executing EPC projects with KNPC in Kuwait. We look forward to working with our joint venture partners and KNPC to successfully deliver this critical project,” said Taco de Haan, President, Fluor Energy & Chemicals for Europe, Africa and the Middle East.
 
The Clean Fuels Project involves upgrading Kuwait’s Mina Abdullah and Mina Al-Ahmadi refineries in order to increase capacity.
