US-based KBR, Inc. announced on Friday that it has received a three year extension to its existing General Maintenance Services (GMS) contract for the 440,000 barrels per day (bpd) refinery at SATORP's refining and petrochemicals project in Jubail. 

Under the terms of the GMS contract, KBR, through its local joint venture subsidiary, will continue to provide preventive, predictive, corrective and shutdown maintenance services, most notably for the Crude Distillation Units, Distillate Hydrocracker, Sulphur Recovery Unit, Aromatics, Catalytic Cracking Unit, Tank Farms and Port Loading Facilities among others.

Meanwhile, KBR’s ZERO HARM program has achieved over 2.3 million safe man-hours on this project.
