沙特阿拉伯签署了价值逾20亿美元的石化协议

据安迅思新加坡11月28日消息，沙特阿拉伯已经宣布签署了价值超过20亿美元的新的石化投资协议，其中包括在朱拜尔的一个新的聚丙烯酰胺工厂和一个合成氨项目。

沙特阿拉伯投资总局(SAGIA)与五大化工巨头——德国巴斯夫、壳牌、日本三井物产、法国SNF和荷兰先进冶金集团(AMG)在利雅得签署了这些协议。

SAGIA和三井物产签署了一项10亿美元的协议，评估在朱拜尔新建一座年产能估计为100万吨的合成氨厂。

根据SAGIA在推特上发布的消息，双方还同意共同开发一个特种化学品下游的机会。

11月21日，壳牌公司在另一份声明中表示，壳牌公司与SAGIA签署了一份谅解备忘录，研究在朱拜尔新建渣油升级催化剂生产设施的可能性。渣油升级催化剂对于帮助炼油厂将渣油升级为更有价值的产品，包括生产石化原料，是至关重要的。壳牌催化技术公司总裁安迪•戈斯（Andy Gosse）表示：“新的全球燃料法规以及对石油制化工产品的日益关注，大大增加了已在运行、在建或计划中的渣油升级装置的数量。随着这些机会的到来，我们面临的挑战是生产大量所需的催化剂。”

此外，SAGIA与德国化工巨头巴斯夫签署了一份谅解备忘录，以评估在沙特阿拉伯的机会，同时SAGIA与SNF签署了另一份谅解备忘录，以评估在朱拜尔新建一座聚丙烯酰胺工厂。
