대림산업, 9억불 규모 사우디 PIB 플랜트 프로젝트 참여 VIDEO; Daelim joins Aramco and Total for Saudi Arabia's first PIB plant
Daelim joins Aramco and Total for Saudi Arabia's first PIB plant
Feed work will wrap up by Q4 2019 for the plant in Jubail, with completion due in 2024
Saudi Arabia's first factory to produce polyisobutylene (PIB), a chemical with a wide array of industrial uses, is set to be built following an agreement between global industrial giants.
The PIB complex deal was concluded when energy heavyweights Saudi Aramco and France-headquartered Total signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with South Korean engineering and construction company Daelim.

대림산업, 9억불 규모 사우디 PIB 플랜트 프로젝트 참여 아람코, 토탈과 FEED 2019년 4분기까지 마무리 2024년 준공 예정 PIB 플랜트 사우디 최초의 산업용 화학 제품 폴리소부틸렌(PIB) 공장으로 될 글로벌 대기업들의 합의에 따라 건설될 예정이며 사우디 에너지 기업인 아람코와 프랑스 토탈이 대림산업과 양해각서(MoU)를 체결했다. 이 공장의 FEED는 이번 달에 시작하여 2019년 4분기에 끝난다. 이 단지는 리야드에서 약 400km 떨어진 거대한 산업도시 주바일에 위치하고 있다. 대림산업은 얀부의 하이드로크랙커(Hydrocracker)와 주바일의 부타놀과 신가스(Syngas) 시설을 포함해 사우디아라비아에서 대규모 에너지 공장을 준공한 실적을 보유하고 있다. 준공되면 아시아, 유럽, 중동으로 수출될 7만 톤 이상의 PIB를 생산할 것이며. 이 화학물질은 접착제, 윤활제, 연료 첨가제를 포함한 광범위한 용도에 사용될 것이다. 세계 최대 공업도시 주바일에 위치한 PIB 공장은 아미랄산 석유화학 메가프로젝트의 일부다. 사업비로는 약 9억 달러(SAR33.7bn)가 소요되며 8,000개의 국내 일자리를 창출할 것이다. 황기철 콘페이퍼 에디터 큐레이터 Ki Cheol Hwang, conpaper editor, curator |
The front-end engineering and design (Feed) stage of the plant will begin this month and wrap up in Q4 2019. The complex will be located in Jubail, a massive industrial city approximately 400km from Riyadh.
Daelim has a track record of completing large-scale energy plants in Saudi Arabia, including a hydrocracker in Yanbu, as well as a butanol and syngas facility in Jubail.

Its project with Aramco and Total will be completed in 2024.
The plant will produce more than 70,000 tonnes of PIB, which will be exported to Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. The chemical will be used for a broad range of applications, including adhesives, lubricant, and fuel additives.
Located in Jubail, which is dubbed the largest industrial city in the world, the PIB plant is part of the Amiral petrochemical megaproject. Amiral will cost $9bn (SAR33.7bn) to develop and lead to the creation of 8,000 local jobs.

The megaproject was greenlit in April 2018, and will be overseen by Saudi Aramco (62.5%) and by Total (37.5%). It comprises the first mixed-feed cracker in the Arabian Gulf region to be integrated with a refinery.
The overall complex can be viewed as part of Saudi Aramco’s efforts to diversify its downstream operations, as the kingdom looks to insulate its economy from oil price volatility, such as the steep decline that rocked oil-exporting nations several years ago.
