KBR ... to offer technical and project delivery expertise.

KBR wins Feed contract for ammonia plant

HOUSTON, December 23, 2014

KBR, a world leader in ammonia technology, said has been awarded the licence and engineering contracts to perform front end engineering and design (Feed) for a potential expansion of Mosaic’s Ammonia plant in Louisiana, US.

The "lean Feed" approach will debottleneck the plant and increase Mosaic’s ammonia production capacity by 20 per cent at their plant located on the banks of the Mississippi, just south of Baton Rouge, said a statement from the company.

KBR’s proprietary ammonia technology will be utilised to revamp and expand the original KBR designed plant. Additionally, the company will provide the basic engineering design and the Feed requirements necessary to produce a final estimate prior to project approval.

Commenting on the win, Stuart Bradie, the president and CEO, said: "This is significant for KBR and we are pleased to be able to support Mosaic with both our leading technology and our technical and project delivery expertise."

"We look forward to developing a broader relationship with Mosaic through successful execution," he added.

KBR has been involved in the licensing, design, engineering and/or construction of more than 230 ammonia plants worldwide.-TradeArabia News Service
