TOYO-SETAL Empreendimentos Ltda. (TSE), a Brazilian joint venture capitalized by Toyo Engineering Corporation (TOYO, President and CEO Katsumoto Ishibashi), has been awarded a contract from Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. (PETROBRAS) for the construction of hydrogen production facilities to be installed in the Complexo Petroquímico do Rio de Janeiro (COMPERJ) now under construction in Itaboraí, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The project scope of work is for detailed design, procurement of equipment and materials, installation and commissioning support. The project is scheduled to be completed in mid-2016.

In addition, TSE is to construct hydrogen generation facilities under this contract.

TSE is a business corporation implementing EPC related mainly to onshore facilities, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of TS Participações e Investimentos S.A. (TSPI), a Brazilian corporation established in May 2012 by TOYO and SOG - Óleo e Gás S.A. (SOG), a leading engineering company, with a shareholding ratio of 50% per company.
