Wood, a global leader in consulting and engineering, has been awarded a significant contract by Thai Oil Public Company (Thaioil) to provide engineering, procurement, and construction management (EPCM) services for Thaioil’s Clean Fuel Project (CFP).
The CFP involves the expansion and upgrade of Thaioil’s refinery in Sriracha to:
-
Increase crude refining capacity
-
Produce more environmentally friendly finished products
-
Enable flexibility to process a variety of crude types
The project forms the cornerstone of Thaioil’s long-term strategy to deliver greener fuels while enhancing Thailand’s energy security.
“This is a crucial project to ensure energy security for the Kingdom of Thailand. Wood’s team previously delivered the front-end engineering design (FEED) in 2017, and our familiarity with the refinery, combined with our brownfield execution expertise, will be instrumental in successfully delivering the EPCM phase efficiently,” said Nick Shorten, Executive President of Projects at Wood.
“Securing this award reflects the strength of Wood’s 43-year relationship with Thaioil and the trust we have built through our local expertise and history of successful EPCM project delivery. I look forward to continuing this partnership and further establishing Wood as Thailand’s premier EPCM provider.”
