McDermott awarded EPC contract for delayed coker unit for LUKOIL refinery

McDermott International, Inc. today announced it has been awarded a significant* contract by LUKOIL NizhegorodNefteorgSyntez, a subsidiary of JSC LUKOIL, for the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of the Delayed Coker Unit for the Deep Conversion Complex planned to be built in Kstovo, Russia.

This award follows a 2016 award to Chevron Lummus Global (CLG), McDermott's joint venture with Chevron, for its delayed coking technology, and highlights the significance of pull through opportunities that McDermott's Lummus Technology business offers other parts of the organization. In October 2017, McDermott was awarded a detailed engineering, procurement and long lead supply award contract for the project.

"Our ability to provide integrated, end-to-end solutions, from our industry-leading refining technology to a highly efficient project delivery model, has been a deciding factor in securing this win," said Tareq Kawash, McDermott's Senior Vice President for Europe, Africa, Russia and Caspian. "This is also significant for McDermott because it is the company's first downstream EPC project in the Russian Federation."
