Wood has been awarded a USD 8M contract by ADNOC Refining to deliver pre-front-end engineering and design (pre-FEED) for a new refinery in Ruwais, in the western region of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, which is set to become the world’s largest refining and petrochemicals complex.
The award is for a state-of-the-art refinery with a capacity of 600,000 barrels of crude oil per day. The new refinery will be designed to have full conversion capability and allow integration with existing petrochemicals infrastructure in Ruwais.
Wood will provide a pre-FEED package based on its proven design and execution expertise, drawing upon the company’s global centers of engineering excellence supported by the local Abu Dhabi-based team. Wood will also provide services including licensor selection, site master plan development, the scope of work for the FEED phase as well as an EPC schedule and cost estimate. The pre-FEED phase is expected to be completed by the end of 2019.
