BROWN & ROOT WINS ETHYLENE PLANT CONTRACT
DALLAS, Texas -- Halliburton Company (NYSE-HAL) announced today that its
Brown & Root Petroleum and Chemicals business unit has signed an agreement to
provide engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning of a new
ethylene plant in Kuwait.
Equate Petrochemical Company K.S.C. , a joint venture of Union Carbide
Corporation of Danbury, Conn., and Petrochemical Industries Company of Kuwait,
has contracted Brown & Root Petroleum and Chemicals to build the ethylene plant
in Kuwait. The ethylene unit, with a capacity of 650,000 metric tons per year,
will feed Equate's new ethylene oxide/ethylene glycol and polyethylene plants at
Kuwait s Shuaiba Industrial Complex. All plants are slated for completion during
the third quarter of 1997.
The ethylene unit will use Brown & Root s low capital ethylene technology.
This process technology offers a unique design that combines features of low
capital investment, low energy consumption, ease of operation, and low operating
maintenance.
Thomas H. Cruikshank, chairman of the board and chief executive officer of
Halliburton Company, said, "The Equate contract is especially meaningful to us
because it is the first ethylene plant in Kuwait. Furthermore, this project
award significantly reinforces the standing and global presence of Brown & Root
and its petroleum and chemicals licensed technologies."
Brown & Root Petroleum and Chemicals is an operating unit of Brown & Root
Inc., a business unit of Halliburton Company. Halliburton Company is one of the
world's largest diversified energy services, engineering, maintenance, and
construction companies. Founded in 1919, Halliburton provides a broad range of
energy services and products, industrial and marine engineering and construction
services, and property and casualty insurance services.
