Expansion work on a petrochemical complex owned by Saudi-based PetroRabigh is on track and contractors have been invited to bid for the project, as per Reuters. A second phase of development will add 17 plants though will not expand refinery capacity.
A joint venture between Japan's Sumitomo Chemical and Saudi Aramco, the company currently produces an annual 18 mln tons of refined products and 2.4 mln tons of petrochemicals.
Japan's JGC Corp. is carrying out the front-end engineering and design (FEED) of the second phase of expansion.
