Client expects to see a decision in mid April 2012 on its feedstock allocation for the project. 

Client is still waiting for a decision from Saudi Aramco Total Refining & Petrochemical 

Company (Satorp) on the feed stock allocation. If it goes ahead the plant will receive a 

paraxylene feedstock allocation from Satorp, the Saudi joint venture with Frances Total. 

US Nexant is carrying out feasibility study for the plant and is nearing completion. If 

Qurain is appointed to develop the PET plant, it could appoint a project management 

consultant (PMC) by middle of 2012, and will begin looking for technology partner before 

launching the EPC tenders. 


It is understood that tendering and bidding process for the feasibility study and front-end 

engineering and design (FEED) contract is expected to be launched in the first quarter of 

2012. A project management consultant (PMC) is expected to be selected and announced in 

the second quarter of 2012 (there will be no tendering and bidding process). Tendering and 

bidding process for EPC contract is expected to commence soon after, with an award is 

anticipated by end of the second quarter of 2012. Construction of plant is expected to 

commence in the third quarter of 2012, while the project completion is anticipated in the first 

quarter of 2015. 

This project is in Saudi Arabia. The complex will receive paraxylene feedstock from a local 

refinery, producing 1 million tonnes a year (t/y) of purified terephthalic acid (PTA), 800,000 

t/y of PET as well as other downstream products. Some of the PTA will be offered to local 

markets, while the majority will be converted to PET resin. This complex will support the 

downstream conversion industry in Saudi Arabia in the production of bottle pre-forms, sheet

It is understood that bids will be invited later this year for the EPC contract on this scheme. 

FEED is to be completed in August 2012 with EPC award anticipated in January 2013. 

Project completion is now expected by the end of 2014. Project strategy calls for the EPC 

contract to be based on an open-book approach and ultimately converted into lump-sum 

turnkey. It will involve investment of more that $100-million. 


It is understood that negotiations are ongoing between Tasnee and SAIC regarding the 

development of this project. The tendering and bidding process for the FEED study is 

expected to be launched in the first quarter of 2012, while the EPC contract is expected to be 

awarded in the second quarter of 2012, with work expected to commence soon thereafter. 

Commissioning of the plant is anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2013 and the project is

Project 

This project will be located on a site next to the PetroRabigh complex in Rabigh. The scheme 

is being implemented in 50:50 joint venture with Saudi Advanced Industries Company 

(SAIC). The plant will use 100,000 t/y of propylene oxide from PetroRabigh in a deal agreed 

this year. The production will be used to make polyurethane in cellular and non-cellular 

applications. US-based Carpenter Company is providing the polyol manufacturing technology 

for the project.

Construction for CP3 and CP4 and UKs Petrofac is the frontrunner for UO1 package. 

Other packages still available are: 

- Ethylene cracker: De-bottlenecking 

- Aromatics Complex 

- Acrylic Acid and SAP 

- Tank Farm 

- Common Facilities. 


Client is still evaluating bids for the EPC contracts. Awards are expected to be made by the

start on-site. Another solution could be that the contracts are awarded on an engineering 

only basis, with the full award being made to the same contractor at a later date. 

Updated On : April 3, 2011 

Client is set to release seven construction contracts on this scheme. The seven packages 

include five petrochemicals contracts, an ethylene cracker de-bottlenecking scheme and an 

aromatics complex, which are as follows:

quarter of 2015. Due to the technical nature of many of the packages, several international 

engineering consultancies are currently in talks with EPC contractors about potential joint 

bids. 

Updated On : March 13, 2011 

Client is currently in the process of pre-qualifying companies for the EPC contract. A tender

for the EPC packages is set to be released in the next three months. The exact scope of 

expansion has not yet been released, so it is still unclear how many packages will be 

tendered for the project. Due to the technical nature of this scheme, it is believed that 

consortiums will be formed between EPC contractors and engineering companies. Japan's 

JGC Corporation is carrying out the FEED package.
