Houston-based engineering group KBR announced on Wednesday that it was awarded a contract by Toyo Engineering Corporation to provide licensing and engineering services for PT Pupuk Kalimantan Timur (Pupuk Kaltim)-the largest urea and ammonia manufacturing company in Indonesia.
The project will be held at Kaltim-5, Pupuk Kaltim?s plant, located in Bontang, East Kalimanta, that produces 2,500 metric tons ammonia per day
KBR will provide the licensing, basic engineering package and related services for Kaltim-5. The fertilizer complex is being constructed to meet the growing demand for urea fertilizer in the region, and will be based on KBR?s Purifier technology which offers the lowest proven energy consumption. The plant will eventually replace an existing unit, allowing it to decrease wasteful gas consumption and to operate more efficiently. (romel)
