Publish Date : 19-Jan-2013
Cambodian Petrochemical Co. Ltd (CPC) has awarded a contract to KBR to provide licensing and engineering services for the Veba Combi Cracker (VCC) Unit which would be executed in the Kampong Som Petrochemical Industrial Zone of Cambodia.
The agreement on behalf of CPC was executed by the EPC Contractor for the Unit, Tianjin Petrochemical Engineering Design Co. LTD. (TPED).
KBR will have to provide License and Basic Engineering services for the 1.2 MMTPA VCC Unit which would deal in processing of refinery vacuum residues into high value naphtha and Euro 5 diesel products.
Li Chengchun, Chief Executive Officer of CPC said, “The VCC technology was selected after careful evaluation of the process. The high residue conversion and finished products quality will significantly improve the economics of our facility.â€
“VCC can process a wide range of residues and fuel oil which greatly enhances our crude flexibility and had a big influence on the selection of our refinery configuration.â€
Jiang Huadong, General Manager, TPED said, “The EPC contractor is critical to the successful implementation of a new technology. TPED is committed to build this unit in accordance with CPC’s quality, schedule, and cost requirements.â€
John Derbyshire, President, KBR Technology said, “We are pleased to be awarded our fourth license since acquiring the right to license VCC in 2010. The other three units are under construction. I look forward to working with CPC and TPED as we embark on this important project.â€
