Air Liquide Engineering & Construction has announced that it has signed a new equipment supply contract with Yulin Energy and Chemical Corp. of Shaanxi Yanchang Petroleum Group, a large energy and chemical company in China.
Under the terms of the contract, Air Liquide Engineering & Construction will design and build two large air separation units (ASUs), each of which will have an oxygen capacity of 1800 tpd, to supply oxygen and nitrogen for the customer’s mega methanol-to-olefin project located in Jingbian Energy & Chemical Integration Industrial Park, Shaanxi Province.
Air Liquide has a longstanding partnership with Yanchang Group. In 2014, Air Liquide Engineering and Construction delivered two ASUs of 1440 tpd each to Yanchang-Jingbian Phase I Project. Two additional ASUs of 1400 tpd each are currently under construction to supply oxygen ‘over the fence’ to Yanchang for its project Yanan.
