Project Updates: ADVANCED Petrochemical Complex Al-Jubail, Saudi Arabia CB&I successfully completed a polypropylene plant in Al-Jubail, Saudi Arabia for ADVANCED Petrochemical Company, a private petrochemical company. The plant has a capacity of 455,000 metric tons per annum and is currently operating above the nameplate capacity. Safety was paramount in all phases of the project, which resulted in 13.5 million workhours without a lost-time incident. CB&I served as the overall project management contractor, completing the fast-track project in 32 months. The plant utilizes Lummus Technology’s CATOFIN® dehydrogenation technology and Novolen® advanced gas-phase polypropylene technology, licensed by Lummus Novolen Technology. The Novolen unit has been designed for the production of both standard and specialty applications to enable ADVANCED Petrochemical Company to serve local and export markets. Project highlights: - 630 pieces of equipment - 1,525-ton propylene splitter column - 500,000 diameter inches of pipe welding - 1.1 million meters of electrical and instrument cables and wires - 15 buildings - 500 tons of refractory brick inside the CATOFIN reactors - 7,500 field instruments Safety was paramount in all phases of the project, which resulted in 13.5 million work-hours without a lost-time incident. Lummus Technology has exclusive worldwide licensing rights to the CATOFIN technology, which features high per pass conversion, high catalyst selectivity, and fixed bed reactors. The fixed bed reactors are used with a catalyst and operating conditions that optimize the complex relationship among conversion, selectivity, and energy consumption. On-stream efficiencies of 98+%, excluding turnarounds of 2-3 weeks every two years for catalyst change, are routinely achieved. 16

Fluid Catalytic Cracking Lummus Technology offers a proven, state-of-the-art FCC technology for converting gasoils and resids to lighter, higher-value products. This process achieves high conversion and selectivity to light products, allowing refiners to meet the most rigorous challenges of producing today’s clean fuels and petrochemicals. The process converts a wide range of feedstocks, from hydrotreated and unhydrotreated gasoils to resids, and the flexibility allows conversion and selectivity to vary from maximum distillate production at one extreme, to maximum propylene production at the other. This FCC technology can be applied fully in grassroots units or partially in the revamp of existing units.
