Under the contract scope, McDermott will provide FEED services for a new modularized production unit. The unit will produce ultra-low sulfur gasoline with up to ten parts per million (ppm) sulfur to meet the proposed changes to Australia’s fuel quality standards from the end of 2024. Lower sulfur gasoline will support improved vehicle emissions.

“This award is testament to our successful execution of the pre-FEED. In this next phase, we will apply McDermott’s extensive modularization expertise to ensure quality, reduce cost and maintain the schedule,” said Tareq Kawash, Senior Vice President, Onshore of McDermott. “We look forward to continuing to support Viva Energy Australia’s carbon emission reduction goals to provide cleaner fuels and enhance Australia’s fuel security.”
