CB&I has announced it has been awarded a contract by Técnicas Reunidas, S.A. for new product storage tanks that will be part of a clean fuels expansion project at Saudi Aramco’s refinery in Ras Tanura, Saudi Arabia.

CB&I’s scope includes the engineering, procurement, fabrication and construction of nine flat bottom tanks, as well as modifications to numerous existing tanks, all of which were previously supplied by CB&I. In support of Saudi Aramco’s In-Kingdom Total Value Add program, CB&I will provide all fabrication and project management utilising its local facilities in Al-Khobar. The project will facilitate CB&I’s ongoing efforts to train, develop and employ Saudi Arab nationals in key positions.

“This award reinforces our global relationship with Técnicas Reunidas and builds on our nearly 80-year history of supporting Saudi Aramco,” says Luke V. Scorsone, Executive Vice President of CB&I’s Fabrication Services operating group. “Beginning in 1938, CB&I has provided nearly all of the product storage at the Ras Tanura facility.”
