Yokogawa Electric Corporation has announced that its subsidiary, Yokogawa Electric Korea, has received an order to supply an analyser package solution for the Liwa Plastics Industries Complex, which is being built for Oman Oil Refineries and Petroleum Industries Company (Orpic), a company owned and operated by the Oman government.
The client is responsible for the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) of an approximately 800 000 ton per annum naphtha cracker and related utility facilities at the complex. The analysis systems will rely on Yokogawa GC8000 process gas chromatographs to separate mixed gases and volatile liquids into their respective components and measure their concentrations. A total of 75 GC8000 units have been ordered, and this is Yokogawa’s largest single project order to date for this product.
The analyser houses will be delivered by the third quarter of 2018, and the Liwa Plastics Industries Complex is scheduled to start operation in the first quarter of 2020.
