The project will be executed in two phases. Phase I will include detail engineering and procurement of long-lead items and Phase II will comprise the rest of detail engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning. The $80 million contract awarded to Samsung Engineering is for Phase I which will be executed on an OBCE (Open Book Cost Estimation) basis.

Samsung Engineering’s design will include the new HDS (hydrodesulfurization) unit with the capacity of 38,000 BPSD and the revamping of an existing HDS unit with the capacity of 53,000 BPSD. The initial engineering phase of the project is expected to be completed in September of 2015.

With the understanding of the Mexican market and the successful completion of previous projects, Samsung Engineering hopes to continue a successful long-term partnership with PEMEX.”
PEMEX is expected to release modernization projects for existing refineries in the near future. Samsung Engineering hopes that this award leads to a bright future with PEMEX as partner.
