Daelim held a contracting ceremony for the project to remodel KRW 200 billion FCC and construct acid water treatment facilities at the Kuwait National Petroleum Company (KNPC) head office on June 26, 2013. Ordered by KNPC, this project will be implemented by Daelim’s Plant Business Division in EPC lump sum turnkey fashion wherein the company is responsible for engineering/design, procurement, construction, and test run.

This project is part of the Clean Fuels Project (CFP), which is expanding KNPC’s large-scale refinery, and will be carried out at the Mina Al-Ahmadi refinery, part of Kuwait’s largest oil refining industrial complex, about 35km away south of Kuwait City. Daelim will engage in construction to produce gasoline, LPG, and propylene by decomposing heavy crude oil with higher impurity content through the remodeling of FCC. The company will also build facilities to treat phenol acid water generated by the production and a cooling tower to supply cooling water. The project duration is 24 months.
