HOUSTON, Jan. 30 -- Croatia's national oil and gas company Industrija Nafte Zagreb (INA) plans to modernize its Rijeka refinery to increase production and improve safety and environmental performance.

INA awarded a $3.8 million contract in January to Honeywell Process Solutions EMEA, Phoenix, Ariz., to automate the refinery and power plant operations, which would provide more-accurate monitoring and control of the fluid catalytic cracking unit and power plant. Honeywell will provide engineering, on-site services, and project management throughout the refinery automation project.

The project is part of widespread business modernization programs designed to strengthen INA's ability to serve the growing European market.
