ICA Fluor to Build a US$1 billion
dollar refining facility in Mexico
January 11, 2016 Mexico City
— ICA Fluor, the industrial construction joint venture of Empresas ICA, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV and NYSE: ICA) and Fluor Corporation
(NYSE: FLR), announced today that its ICA Fluor industrial engineering-construction joint venture was authorized by Pemex Transformación
Industrial (Pemex) to proceed with the engineering, procurement and construction (Phase II) of the Madero Clean Diesel project
at the Madero Refinery in Tamaulipas, Mexico.
ICA Fluor will provide detailed
engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning and start-up services for two 25,000-barrel-per-day diesel hydrodesulfurization
trains and associated facilities. The project also includes installation of new hydrogen, sulfur recovery and sour water treatment
plants; the revamp of the existing diesel hydrodesulfurization unit, and offsites and utilities to integrate the new production
facility with the existing refinery. The project is scheduled to be completed in the first quarter of 2018.
The project is part of Pemex’s
clean fuels program, its comprehensive development and modernization program, and is designed to increase Mexico’s production
of ultra-low sulfur diesel in accordance with applicable environmental standards.
“We are very pleased with
the performance of ICA Fluor, and this award by Pemex demonstrates the trust and confidence in our joint venture to successfully
execute this very significant clean fuels project at the Madero refinery,” said Peter Oosterveer, Fluor’s chief operating
officer. “Fluor and ICA Fluor remain fully committed to Pemex and our other clients in the Mexican market.”
