HOUSTON, Aug. 9 -- ExxonMobil Asia Pacific Pte. has given the go-ahead to Foster Wheeler Ltd. to begin front-end engineering design of selected downstream units and associated plant infrastructure for the Singapore parallel train (SPT) project, a world-scale steam-cracking complex being considered for installation at the ExxonMobil unit's Singapore refining and chemical plant site. The firm also will undertake FEED for the overall SPT project infrastructure.
The SPT project coordination and services contract was awarded in January to a team of Foster Wheeler and WorleyParsons.
The complex under study includes an ethylene cracker and downstream plants for ethylene and propylene derivatives production.
