JSC Gazprom Neft, the oil arm of Russia’s OAO Gazprom, has let a contract to CB&I, Houston, for front-end engineering and design services for a refining complex at Gazprom Neft’s facility at Omsk, Western Siberia, Russia.
CB&I’s project scope includes FEED development for multiple new process units, including a 2 million tonne/year hydrocracker unit licensed by Chevron Lummus Global, as well as hydrogen, sulfur, and other associated units, CB&I said.
Gazprom’s existing 286,000-b/d Omsk refinery is currently the largest operating refinery in Russia.
