NEXTCHEM (MAIRE) awarded a 3-year engineering and technology services contract by SATORP in Saudi Arabia

Specifically, NextChem Tech will provide process and engineering advisory services to enhance performance, support operational troubleshooting, improve energy efficiency, and reduce the carbon footprint of the three units – sulfur recovery unit (SRU), amine regeneration unit, and sour water stripper – which compose the Sulphur Recovery Complex.

The services will also include recommendations for capital investment opportunities, design enhancements, and technology improvements.

Alessandro Bernini, CEO of MAIRE, commented: “This collaboration marks a significant milestone in our ongoing efforts to drive sustainability and efficiency in the refining industry. This agreement not only strengthens our relationship with SATORP, after TECNIMONT's multibillion-dollar petrochemical expansion project awarded in June 2023 – the so called Amiral project –, but also underscores our commitment to delivering engineering and technology solutions that reduce environmental impact.”
