KBR (KBR) said Wednesday that it got a contract from
ConocoPhillips (COP) and the Saudi Arabian Oil Co. to do work on
the 400,000-barrels-a-day Yanbu refinery project.
The Houston-based construction and services giant said it would
provide engineering and procurement services for the utilities
package, interconnecting systems and pipe racks at the refinery
project, a joint venture between Conoco and the Saudi oil
giant.
KBR conducted front-end engineering and design work for the
Yanbu project. The refinery, located in Saudi Arabia, is currently
in the tendering process for the final investment decision by
Conoco and Saudi Aramco. The final sanctioning of the project is
expected to occur in 2010, Houston-based ConocoPhillips has
said.
