Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. was awarded a contract from Afipsky Refinery, located in the Krasnodarskij Region of Russia, to develop a basic engineering package for an amine regenerator unit, a sour water stripper and an expected 55 tons per day (TPD) sulfur recovery unit (SRU). All three units are part of a refinery extension project which includes a hydrotreater unit and a visbreaker unit.
The SRU design is based on Jacobs’ proprietary EUROCLAUS® process and is being executed from Jacobs’ office in Leiden, The Netherlands. Jacobs is working closely with the Moscow-based EPC contractor, Giprogazoochistka, who is Russia’s leading engineer of gas treating units and SRU’s.
