This project represents a significant milestone in enhancing the facility’s CCS capacity.
The core equipment, manufactured and tested at MHI Compressor Corp.(MCO) in Hiroshima, Japan, was delivered in April 2024. The packaging work was executed by MCO-I in Pearland, Texas, US, ensuring a seamless and high-quality integration while enabling the end-user to conduct final inspections and familiarise themselves with the package locally.
Michael McCurry, Account Executive, MCO-I, said: “We are honoured to collaborate with ExxonMobil on this landmark project. Our longstanding relationship with ExxonMobil in the petrochemical market and our capability to manufacture and test large, vertically split type machines were key factors in our selection.”
McCurry added: “We incorporated unique technologies to facilitate the installation and removal of the large bundle during maintenance periods, ensuring operational efficiency and reliability.”
This project aligns with MHI’s commitment to achieving carbon neutrality by 2040 and to pioneering innovative technologies that contribute to a sustainable future.
The project involved personnel from both MCO and MCO-I for manufacturing, testing, and installation/commissioning support, ensuring the highest standards of excellence and performance.
