Fluor awarded FEED contract for new aromatics facility in Bahrain.

Fluor Corporation has been selected by Gulf Petrochemical Industries Company to execute the front-end engineering and design for a new aromatics facility in the Kingdom of Bahrain. The project will expand GPIC's existing complex, which currently produces ammonia, urea and methanol. The new facility will use commercially proven process technologies to produce approximately 1.2 million metric tons of paraxylene and 0.5 million metric tons of benzene annually. Paraxylene and benzene are critical building blocks for plastics, polyester fibers and packaging materials.
