Borouge selected Neste Jacobs last week as its lead contractor for its polyethylene plant modification project in the Ruwais industrial area in the United Arab Emirates.
“This contract is an important milestone in cooperation and partnership between Neste Jacobs and Borouge,” Jarmo Suominen, CEO of Neste Jacobs, said. “This project is also a proof that we are generating real added values for our customers and provide high quality services competitively in the Middle East and also globally.”
This project is the third FEED project in a row, which Neste Jacobs is delivering to Borouge in the UAE under the long term service contract that was previously signed between the two companies. The project scope includes FEED services such as process and plant engineering and project management.
The project will be executed by Neste Jacobs’ Abu Dhabi office and it will be delivered within the course of year 2015.
“Neste Jacobs’ extensive know-how of our polyethylene process technology and our production plants combined with Neste Jacobs’ local presence in the Middle East were some of the most important selection criteria for choosing a FEED Contractor,” Abdulla Ateya, senior vice president of the technical group of Borouge, said.
