KBR signs ammonia technology alliance deal
HOUSTON, December 14, 2014
KBR, a global engineering, construction and services company, said it has signed an agreement with PT Rekayasa Industri (Rekind) to provide ammonia technology to the key markets of Indonesia, Southeast Asia and Asia.
Under this agreement, Rekind will exclusively promote and licence KBR’s proprietary ammonia technology, along with its proprietary equipment, catalyst and automation packages to ammonia producers in the region.
Rekind was set up in 1981 by the Indonesia government to develop national capabilities in engineering, procurement, and construction services for large industrial plants.
With over 30 years of experience in refinery and petrochemical projects Rekind is now one of the leading EPCC companies in Indonesia.
“This alliance helps KBR increase its competitive edge for licensing ammonia technology particular in Indonesia, Southeast Asia and Asian markets,” stated Stuart Bradie, the president and chief executive of KBR.
“Together, we are well-positioned to win more ammonia projects in the region,” he added.
Considered a world leader in ammonia technology, KBR has been involved in the licensing, design, engineering and/or construction of more than 230 ammonia plants worldwide.-TradeArabia News Service
