Many New Refinery Projects Are In the Developing Countries
Refinery projects totaling hundreds of billions of dollars are underway in
countries which were formerly just oil producers. These projects along with oil
and gas, tar sands and other refining projects are tracked in Oil, Gas, Shale
and Refining Markets and Projects, a service provided by the McIlvaine
Company. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)

Petroecuador, will own 51%, the
remaining 49% owned by PdVSA. |
There are a number of projects in South America including a $13 billion project
in Ecuador. In the Middle East, there are many projects including two by Kuwait
totaling $30 billion. Nigeria and South Africa are two African countries with
considerable project activity.
These projects typically involve a coordinated sales effort. The owner is likely
to be in one country while the engineering company is in another country.
The EPC contractor can be in a third country and the plant location in a fourth
country. The sale of common components such as pumps and valves may also
entail pursuing sub-system contractors in multiple countries.

Power Plants Will Spend $21 Billion Next Year on Water Related Equipment and
Consumables
Nuclear, fossil, wind and solar power plant operators will spend $21 billion in
2014 for hardware and consumables to move, treat and monitor water. This is the
conclusion reached by the McIlvaine Company by aggregating forecasts appearing
in its power and water related market reports.

Coal-fired power plant operators in East Asia will account for the majority of
the hardware expenditures and nearly 20 percent of the consumables.
Nuclear, gas turbine and coal-fired power plants use massive amounts of water
for cooling. Additional water is needed for the scrubbers and for the
steam cycle. The water which is converted to steam has to be of the
highest purity.
Wastewater from the scrubber, flyash transport, cooling water blowdown and other
sources needs to be treated before release. This involves lots of chemicals and
filtration equipment.
There is a movement toward zero liquid discharge. This involves evaporation of
waste slurries. It adds additional hardware and cost to the operator, but
eliminates any potential water pollution.
