Saudi Aramco Dew Point Control Unit

Abqaiq NGL Plant

Focus product: Chartek 2218

Location: Saudi Arabia
 

Facility Background
 

Saudi Aramco’s Abqaiq Plant stands as one of the world’s largest oil processing and stabilization facilities. The Dew Point Control Unit (DPCU) within this massive facility plays a critical role in addressing condensation challenges.

 

Project Focus
 

The primary objective of this €3.3 million project is to enhance fire protection for the primary steel structure and equipment support at the DPCU in Abqaiq. This involves the application of Chartek 2218, a specialized fire protection coating.

 

Contract Chain Collaboration

Al Yami, acting as both the direct customer and the applicator, is a key player in the contract chain. The AkzoNobel MEA team worked closely with the entire contract chain, particularly focusing on JGC (EPC), to provide specification, technical support, fire engineering, and efficient installation of Chartek 2218.

 

Project Management and Success Factors

The success of this project can be attributed to effective project management across the contract chain. The collaborative efforts established significant value among the owner, EPC, and applicator through product differentiation and technical excellence.

 

Training and Technical Support

As a new applicator, Al Yami represents an opportunity for the AkzoNobel Technical Service team to offer chargeable services and training, ensuring their confidence and competence in applying Chartek 2218. This collaboration is expected to strengthen relationships within the contract chain, extending well beyond the completion of this project.
