KBR wins LBED contract for ammonia plant revamp in Russia
HOUSTON — KBR, Inc. announced that it has been awarded a contract by Dorogobuzh JSC (owned by JSC ACRON) to provide licensing and basic engineering design (LBED) to revamp an ammonia plant—originally built by KBR—located in the Dorogobuzh, Smolensk region of Russia. Under the agreement, KBR will supply its proprietary ammonia technology to increase plant capacity significantly to 2,100 MMtpd with improved efficiency.
KBR will utilize its revamp technology KRES (KBR Reforming Exchanger System) in conjunction with KBR's True Cold Wall Add-on Converter to achieve low project cost revamping to enable Dorogobuzh to produce low cost ammonia to meet increasing captive demand.
KBR has been involved in the licensing, design, engineering and/or construction of more than 230 ammonia plants worldwide.
Revenue associated with this project is undisclosed and was booked into backlog of unfilled orders for KBR's Technology & Consulting Business Segment in the second quarter of 2017.
