The revamp of the existing installations will enable refining capacity to be increased from 2.7 to 3.6 million tons per year.
The new units will allow the refinery to produce gasoline at specifications similar to those in force in Europe.
This project will be carried out by Technip’s operating center in Paris, the company said.
France-based Technip provides project management, engineering and construction services for the oil and gas industry.
