Amec Foster Wheeler announces today the award of a contract by SKS Corporation Sdn Bhd, together with Petromin Corporation of Saudi Arabia, another Asian partner and Ocenia PTE Ltd of Japan, to supply consultancy services for a proposed new refinery and petrochemical complex in Kedah state, Malaysia.
The value of the consultancy contract, which will be delivered during 2015 by an Amec Foster Wheeler team in Reading and Kuala Lumpur, has not been announced.
