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