Under the JPY240bn ($2.32bn) contract, Toyo Engineering will provide services for a SCC at Pengerang in Johor, Malaysia.

A consortium comprising Toyo-Japan and Toyo-Malaysia will manage the contract.

Toyo will provide services for an ethylene production plant, pyrolysis gasoline plant, butadiene extraction plant, benzene separation plant, MTBE production plant, and utility and offsite facilities.

The steam cracker complex, slated for construction at Petronas’ refinery and petrochemicals integrated development (RAPID) project in Pengerang, Johor, Malaysia, will be completed in the middle of 2019.

RAPID is considered to be the largest liquid-based green-field downstream in Malaysia, and is a part of Petronas’s Pengerang Integrated Complex (PIC) development, which is valued at $27bn.

The project will feature a refinery with a capacity of 300,000 barrels per day, and a petrochemical complex.
