UHDE TO SUPPLY NORWEGIAN ELECTROLYSIS PLANT Norsk Hydro has commissioned Germany’s Uhde GmbH to construct an 80 million chlor-alkali electrolysis plant in Rafnes, Norway. Uhde will build the plant on a turnkey basis, with completion set for June 2005. The plant will have a capacity of 130 000 tonnes per year of chlorine and 146 000 tonnes per year of caustic soda solution.
BOREALIS UPS BORSTAR CAPACITY Borealis is investing 200 million in a new 350 000 tonnes per year polyethylene plant and in a 90 000 tonnes per year expansion of the existing Borstar polypropylene plant at its petrochemical facility in Schwechat, Austria. When the new Borstar polyethylene plant comes on stream in 2005, Borealis will phase out two old LDPE lines and a HDPE line at the Schwechat site, increasing net capacity of polyethylene by 150 000 tonnes per year.

The first contract, worth US$75 million, is for full service engineering and design and will cover capital projects, site engineering and
related project services at facilities in the southeastern and northeastern USA. A second US$14 million contract is for maintenance and reliability improvement services for seven DuPont plant sites in the southeastern USA and the Texas Gulf Coast. The third US$15 million contract will cover capital projects, engineering and design, site engineering and design for projects in Germany and Luxembourg.
PETROCHEMICALS CHIYODA/TEC CONSORTIUM WINS RUSSIAN EPC CONTRACT Sakhalin Energy Investment Co Ltd has awarded Japan’s Chiyoda Corp and Toyo Engineering Corp and their Russian partners an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract for the grass-roots Sakhalin Liquefied Natural Gas plant in the Russian Federation. The planned 9.6 million tonnes per year LNG plant will consist of two LNG trains, each with a production capacity of 4.8 million tonnes per year. The plant should be operational in 2007.
TECHNIPCOFLEXIP TO UPGRADE FURNACES Technip-Coflexip has been awarded two cracking furnace upgrade contracts using the company’s latest ethylene technology. The first contract is with Saudi Petrochemical Co to work on five existing gas cracking furnaces at its Al Jubail ethylene plant in Saudi Arabia. The contract involves
supplying Technip-Coflexip’s furnace technology, as well as engineering supply of all equipment, construction and start-up supervision. The project will be executed and managed from Technip-Coflexip offices in The Netherlands and in Saudi Arabia. The second contract, from China Petroleum Material & Equipment Corp, is for the upgrade of nine existing cracking furnaces at PetroChina Daqing Petrochemical Co’s ethylene plant in Daqing City, China. This contract will be executed from TechnipCoflexip’s Netherlands office.
TRINIDAD LNG TRAIN GETS THE GO-AHEAD The Trinidad and Tobago government has approved the proposed Atlantic LNG Train 4 project in Trinidad, keeping the US$1.2 billion liquefied natural gas (LNG) project on schedule for completion by the end of 2005. BP is the largest shareholder in the new plant (34%) as well as the largest supplier of gas for liquefaction at the plant. The company has identified Trinidad and Tobago as one of five new profit centres worldwide where it expects to significantly expand hydrocarbon production over the next five years. The other shareholders are British Gas (26%), Repsol (20%), National Gas Co of Trinidad (10%) and Tractebel (10%).
