Union Carbide and Petronas Petrochemical Facility - Engineering
Client: Union Carbide and Petronas JV
Location: Malaysia
Business Segment: Energy Solutions
Industry: Chemicals
Executive Summary
Fluor was contracted to provide the conceptual and front-end process packages for the four derivative units of the Petronas/Union Carbide Integrated Petrochemical Complex. The design effort established detailed facility scope packages.
Client's Challenge
The derivatives facility was built in Kerteh, Malaysia, and consists of four units: Butyl Acetate (BA), Butyl Glycol Ethers (BGE), Ethanol Amines (EA) and Alkoxylation. These units are integrated into a $1.2-billion petrochemical complex.
Fluor's Solution
The team of engineers from Fluor and Union Carbide had to effectively integrate efforts to meet the special challenges of the project. The project required open and efficient communication from the team in order to coordinate with the other units of the petrochemical complex, including EOG, Butanol and Infrastructure.
We developed project and process criteria with input from all Union Carbide engineering functions to provide uniform guidance to all the engineers that worked on the project.
Conclusion
Fluor made a substantial contribution to the development of a new project work process (PWP) related to process-control systems engineering for Union Carbide that allowed development of process and instrumentation diagrams and other deliverables more in line with process industry practices.
