Honeywell Technologies Selected to Build World's Largest Single-Train Refinery in Kenya with Dangote
Honeywell Technologies has been selected by Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals FZE to provide process technologies, licensing, engineering services, proprietary catalysts, equipment, and digital solutions for its planned 700,000 barrel-per-day refinery in Kenya.
The facility is expected to become the world's largest single-train refinery once complete. The project builds on nearly a decade of collaboration between the two companies and leverages proven engineering designs developed by Honeywell Technologies for Dangote's refinery in Lekki, Nigeria.
This will reduce the development schedule for the new facility by nearly two years, approximately 30% sooner than typical newly constructed facilities. The Kenya facility will leverage Honeywell Technologies' refining and petrochemical processing solutions to produce gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and polypropylene.
The refinery will have the flexibility to process a wide variety of crude oils, from light to heavy grades, enabling the use of feedstocks sourced from multiple regions and reducing reliance on any single supply source.
