Jacobs Receives New Contracts From Saudi Aramco

A Jacobs Engineering Group subsidiary has received contracts from Saudi Aramco to utilise Jacobs' proprietary SUPERCLAUS(R) technology for 13 sulfur recovery units (SRUs).

Jacobs is performing the awarded work at three key Saudi Aramco locations in Saudi Arabia. The Kursaniyah site is adding three SRUs with a capacity of 900 tons per day (tpd) each while the Shedgum and Uthmaniyah locations are both revamping five 550-tpd units. These 13 units will process over 8,200 tons of sulfur per day.

The SUPERCLAUS(R) units produce molten elemental sulfur by recovering sulfur from acid gas (H2S and CO2) feed streams generated by high- and low-pressure regeneration facilities. The additions and upgrades allow Saudi Aramco to satisfy environmental regulations that require a sulfur recovery level of at least 98.7 percent.

Saudi Aramco has over 20 operating units in five locations. Jacobs has added all of the units since they began providing technical services to Saudi Aramco in 2000.

Jacobs Nederland B.V.-Comprimo(R) Sulfur Solutions Group now has over 30 sulfur projects in development worldwide, representing a total recovery of over 25,000 tons of sulfur per day. They have built over 300 units since 1985.
