Phillips 66 Co. has awarded Worley a front-end engineering services contract to convert its San Francisco refinery in Rodeo, California, US, into a renewable diesel facility.
The project will reconfigure the refinery to produce 650 million gal./yr of renewable diesel fuel from used cooking oils, fats, greases and soybean oils. Once built, the renewable fuels facility is expected to be one of the world’s largest facility of its kind.
Under the contract, Worley will provide front-end engineering design services for the facility, which will be executed by Worley’s North America West team with support from Worley’s Global Integrated Delivery team.
“As a global company headquartered in Australia, this project aligns with our strategic focus on sustainability and delivering a more sustainable world. We are pleased that Phillips 66 has engaged Worley in this important renewable diesel project and look forward to supporting Phillips 66’s energy transition goals, while also supporting Worley’s strategic focus on future fuels,” said Chris Ashton, Chief Executive Officer of Worley.
