Fujairah - Cylingas, a subsidiary of Emirates National Oil Company (ENOC), has achieved a key milestone achieving 50 per cent completion without lost time incident on its project; modular petroleum regeneration and processing plant in Fujairah.

Cylingas signed an agreement with Pyramid Engineering in June last year, committing to design, fabricate, install, inspect, test, paint and commission 20 above-ground tanks and associated piping system within the new plant terminal and the connecting pipelines to the port of Fujairah jetty. With 50 per cent completion on terminal works already achieved, the project is progressing on schedule.

The plant has a processing capacity of 7,500 BPD and the storage tank terminal has a capacity of 101,000 cubic metres, making it a significant third party contract for Cylingas.

Saif Al Falasi, Group Chief Executive Officer of ENOC, said: "The significant progress achieved by Cylingas underlines our commitment to excellence and on-schedule delivery. We comply with the best practices in EHS for the landmark project, which complements our plans to expand our geographic presence."

The Pyramid Engineering job is Cylingas's first independent project as the company aims to establish itself as a valued service provider to the industry and a revenue-making business for ENOC.

Raed Ali, General Manager of Cylingas, added: "Reaching this milestone underlines our experience and competencies to undertake large-scale EPC projects that demand extensive mechanical and piping work. We have more than 40 years of engineering and project management experience which is reflected in the high level of quality work we produce. We are thankful to our client for the opportunity to work on such a remarkable project, recognised as a unique petroleum regeneration and handling terminal."

Cylingas is undertaking the mechanical and piping requirements for the tanks including aluminium dome with internal floating and cone roofs. With tanks ranging from 4 to 29.5 metres in diameter and from 5 to 20.5 metres in height, the total storage capacity is 101,000 cubic metres for handling naphtha, diesel, gas oil, fuel oil, kerosene, slop and water.
