Alfa Laval wins SEK 65 million refinery order in Spain
Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling – has won an order to supply air heat exchangers to a refinery in Spain. The order, booked in the Energy & Process segment, has a value of approximately SEK 65 million and delivery is scheduled for 2016.
The order comprises the delivery of Alfa Laval air heat exchangers. These will be used in the refinery process where low-quality heavy gas oil is refined into high-quality, clean-burning jet fuel, diesel and gasoline. The heat exchangers will be retrofitted in the plant, replacing non-Alfa Laval equipment.
“I am very pleased to announce this retrofit order where our equipment has been selected based on their endurance handling high pressures and temperatures,” says Lars Renström, President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group. “The order proves that refinery customers find our products reliable and therefore highly suitable for their demanding applications.”
Did you know that… Alfa Laval has been present in Spain for more than 50 years, or more specifically since 1958?
