✦ Synopsis

KBR to assess South

African refinery project K BR has been awarded a contract by PetroSA to conduct the prefeasibility study to build a US$6 billion crude oil refinery in Coega, Port Elizabeth, South Africa.

The proposed crude oil refinery, called Project Mthombo, is expected to come on stream in 2014/2015. Project Mthombo, which could produce more than 200 000 barrels of fuel per day, will be one of the largest post-2010 investments in South Africa.
