KBR announced earlier today that it has acquired a front-end engineering and design (FEED) contract to build one of the largest high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plants in America. The contract for a facility that would generate 470 kilotons of bimodal HDPE per year was given by INEOS Olefins & Polymers USA.
With units worldwide, KBR is an engineering and construction services company that specialises in giving support to the hydrocarbon, industrial, minerals, energy, power, civil infrastructure and government services market. KBR's history of achievements highlights the FEED for the inside and outside battery limit units, order of essential long lead equipment and calculation of an appropriation grade cost estimate for the project.
The plant is expected to be situated along the U.S. Gulf coast area.
"This is an important and strategic win for KBR and will allow us the opportunity to demonstrate our unparalleled expertise in the downstream market," stated KBR Downstream President David Zelinski. "KBR is pleased to continue our successful partnership with INEOS and support their commitment to the HDPE market."
