OMV contracts John Wood for SAF and HVO project in Romania

In Romania, John Wood has been awarded a significant contract by OMV Petrom for a major project to boost the production of sustainable fuel in Southeast Europe. Under the scope of this project, the Petrobrazi refinery in Romania will become the first major production facility for sustainable aviation fuel in the region. Following successful delivery of the front-end engineering and design (FEED) for this important project, Wood will now deliver engineering, procurement and construction management (EPCm) to install a new bio-hydrotreater unit and relevant storage facilities at the refinery. This project will enable the production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) utilising Honeywell UOP Ecofining™ process technology.
