Shaw to help engineer a new ethylene plant in India
The Shaw Group Inc. has been selected by GAIL (India) to provide its proprietary technology and basic engineering for a new 450,000 tpy ethylene plant. Shaw also will provide support during detailed engineering, procurement and construction, and commissioning and startup of the plant, which will be part of GAIL's petrochemical complex in Pata, Uttar Pradesh, India.
"Shaw provided technology and basic engineering for GAIL's first 400,000 tpy ethylene plant at Pata in the late 1990s. The performance of that plant, coupled with our ability to integrate it with the new parallel plant, will result in capital and energy savings for our customer," said Lou Pucher, president of Shaw's Energy and Chemicals Group.
Shaw recently announced full commercial operation of a 1.3 million metric tpy ethylene plant for Eastern Petrochemical Co. (SHARQ) in Al-Jubail, Saudi Arabia.
