CB&I, a subsidiary of McDermott, has been awarded a sizeable* lump sum contract by the Saipem Clough joint venture for engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of ammonia storage and other process tanks for the Perdaman Chemicals and Fertilisers Urea Plant located on the Burrup Peninsula, Western Australia.
Under the scope of the project, CB&I will provide EPC services for a 10 000 t full containment ammonia storage tank and associated piping to grade, as well as ten API650 storage tanks. Project delivery will be led from CB&I's Perth office, with CB&I's Plainfield, Ill. (US) and Thailand offices providing engineering, fabrication and tank building support.
"Selection of CB&I reflects our position as a tank builder in the ammonia storage tank market," said Mark Butts, Senior Vice President of CB&I.
CB&I's construction activities are expected to commence in the first quarter of 2025 with project completion in 2028.
The Perdaman Chemicals and Fertilisers development will be the world's largest gas stream ammonia-urea plant. The Burrup Peninsula is approximately 8km from Dampier and 20km northwest of Karratha on the northwest coastline of Western Australia.
