Jacobs wins contract for new MEGlobal production facility
Jacobs Engineering Group Inc, has received a contract from MEGlobal, a wholly-owned subsidiary of EQUATE Petrochemical Company and a world leader in the manufacture and supply of merchant monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol, to provide engineering, procurement and construction management services for a new monoethylene glycol (MEG) manufacturing facility near Freeport, Texas.
“Jacobs’ chemical industry expertise and proven track record were key factors in the selection process. The completion of this complex project will help MEGlobal establish a U.S. Gulf Coast presence and expand its position in the MEG market,” said President, MEGlobal International FZE of MEGlobal Ramesh Ramachandran.
This award follows Jacobs’ successful delivery of the facility’s front end engineering package, which incorporates The Dow Chemical Company’s licensed process technology as well as non-process equipment and piping both inside and outside the new facility’s battery limits.
“Our global MEG and local chemical project experience combined with our thorough understanding of the engineering package will contribute significant value and an efficient, high-quality approach to this important project,” said Jacobs Senior Vice President Petroleum and Chemicals Manuel Junco.
