Petrofac has been awarded two engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) packages for Saudi Aramco’s Jazan Refinery and Terminal project
When complete, the refinery will produce around 400,000 bpd and have associated terminal facilities on the Red Sea near Jazan in the south west of Saudi Arabia.
The combined value of the EPC contracts is around US$1.4bn. Petrofac’s Saudi Arabia office will lead the project management delivery of the work scope which covers tank farms in the north and south areas of the development.
Marwan Chedid, chief executive of engineering, construction, operations and maintenance division at Petrofac, said, “We are delighted to have secured these significant packages for Saudi Aramco on their Jazan Refinery and Terminal project. This will serve to reinforce the relationships and experience we have developed through our recent involvement on the Karan project as well as our ongoing Petro Rabigh projects for Saudi Aramco and Sumitomo Chemical.
“As this project progresses, we look forward to working closely with Saudi Aramco and our contractors to further deepen our engineering and project management capability in the Kingdom.”
