The company is responsible for the preparation of the basic engineering design package, FEED and early procurement assistance for the crude distillation unit, the naphtha hydrotreater, the continuous catalytic reformer and the utilities and offsite facilities.
The FEED is scheduled to be completed in the third quarter of this year, Foster Wheeler said.
Foster Wheeler interim CEO Umberto della Sala said this project is another step in the company’s successful working relationship with PDVSA and follows the award for the major expansion of the El Palito refinery in Venezuela.
Foster Wheeler is a global engineering and construction contractor and power equipment supplier.
