M.W. Kellogg awarded StatoilHydro Coker revamp contract

KBR Inc, the engineering and construction company, announced its 55% owned subsidiary, M.W. Kellogg Ltd. (MWKL) has been awarded a contract to provide detailed engineering and procurement services for a coker revamp project at StatoilHydro's Mongstad Refinery, near Bergen, Norway.

The project will improve the working environment and safety of the operators on the coker unit by automating processes to improve safety, performance, and reliability. MWKL was awarded pre-engineering work in July 2007 to assess the necessary changes to the coker.

The project will be implemented during a coker unit shutdown in 2009 and a scheduled refinery turnaround period in April 2010, with completion scheduled for the middle of 2010. Project work will be performed at MWKL's main office in Greenford, West London along with collocated StatoilHydro representatives.

MWKL, a subsidiary of KBR Inc. and the JGC Corporation of Yokohama, Japan, is a full service contractor serving the energy and petrochemicals industries.
