It is reported that Zamil Steel Structural Steel Division has been awarded a USD 12.3 million contract for the fabrication and supply of steel works for the Saudi Aramco Mobil Refinery Company Clean Fuels Project located in the western region of Saudi Arabia.

It aims to reduce the sulphur levels in gasoline and diesel to 10 parts per million in order to meet the environmental regulations of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The scope of the contract calls for the fabrication and supply of structural steel requirements. Worley Parsons is responsible for the front-end engineering design and detailed engineering, procurement and construction for the project.
