Aker Kvaerner delivering services for mega polypropylene project

Aker Kvaerner is providing project management, procurement and engineering services for a new polypropylene (PP) plant being built by Reliance Petroleum Ltd in a Special Economic Zone in Jamnagar, in Gujarat, India. The plant is expected to be the largest capacity polypropylene facility to date, and will take propylene feed from a newly developed (grass roots) refinery complex.

The expansion includes two new polypropylene lines each with a nameplate capacity of 450,000 tonnes per annum. Aker Kvaerner's AK Process business is providing the basic engineering and project management for the overall Aker Kvaerner scope. Aker Kvaerner Powergas India in Mumbai is providing the detailed design and engineering services.

The project will use UNIPOL PP Technology from The Dow Chemical Company. The project is scheduled for completion and start-up in 2008.
