EQUATE Grassroots Petrochemical Complex - Program Management
EQUATE, a joint venture of Union Carbide Corporation and Petroleum Industries Company, selected Fluor as the overall Program Managing Contractor for the Kuwait Petrochemical Complex.
This project, one of the largest petrochemical complexes in the world, produced ethylene glycol and polyethylene to serve the Asia-Pacific and Middle East markets. The total installed cost for this mega-project was US$1.4 billion.
The petrochemical complex, located within the Shuaiba Industrial Complex, included four grassroots process plants:
- A 650,000-metric-tons-per-annum (MTA) ethylene plant based on an ethane feedstock supplied by the Kuwait National Petroleum Corporation
- A 340,000 MTA mono-ethylene glycol plant
- A 450,000 MTA linear low-density polyethylene and high-density polyethylene plant
- Offsites and utility facilities
Fluor will perform program management and administer the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) areas for the grassroots petrochemical complex. Separately, Fluor was also awarded EPC responsibility for the offsites, utilities and infrastructure.
