Jacobs Engineering Group’s proprietary EUROCLAUS® sulphur recovery technology was selected by Tüpraş for its new sulphur recovery units that will be installed in the company’s Izmit, Izmir and Kirikkale refineries in Turkey.
Jacobs’ EUROCLAUS sulphur recovery technology will expand Tüpraş’ crude slate by processing more sour crudes, while reducing its environmental footprint, delivering industry leading SO2 emissions abatement.
Under the contract terms, Jacobs will provide technology licensing, basic engineering and start-up services.
“This award builds on the successful delivery of similar plants in Tüpraş’ refineries and fortifies our reputation as a global leader of sulphur recovery technologies,” said Andrew Berryman, senior vice president and general manager, mining & minerals and specialty chemicals, Jacobs.
“Supporting our clients in their efforts to reduce their environmental footprint is fully aligned with Jacobs’ vision to provide solutions for a more sustainable world,” added Berryman.
