Technip awarded contract for a new calcination unit for a coker project in Abu Dhabi
Technip was awarded a significant contract comprising technology, engineering services and supply of core equipment for Abu Dhabi Oil Refining Company – Takreer's new coke calcination unit. This new unit is part of the Carbon Black & Delayed Coker project being implemented adjacent to Takreer’s existing Ruwais refinery located in the United Arab Emirates.
The unit will consist of two trains and is designed to process 700,000 tons per annum superior-quality anode green petroleum coke through 2 kilns, thanks to the implementation of world-leading licensed technologies. The processed coke will be used as anode coke for Abu Dhabi's growing aluminium industry. Technip will support the EPC contractor, Samsung Engineering Co, Ltd, until the completion of the performance testing of the new unit.
Technip's operating center in Düsseldorf, Germany will execute the contract, which is scheduled to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2015.
Technip's operating center in Abu Dhabi will execute the project which is scheduled for completion in the first half of 2015.
Mesut Sahin, Managing Director of Technip in Germany, declared: “This contract follows the successful completion of the process design package for this new coke calcination unit for Takreer last year. The award reinforces the world-leading position of the rotary kiln and cooler technologies representing about 70% of the world’s total calcined coke production capacity. We are proud for being entrusted to design and deliver our 7th reference plant to our customers."
