The Woodlands/USA – CB&I announced it has been awarded the license and engineering design of a grassroots alkylation unit by PT Pertamina (Persero). The unit will use CB&I's CD-Alky sulfuric acid alkylation technology and Haldor Topsoe's Wet gas Sulfuric Acid technology as part of the upgrade of Pertamina's Refinery Unit V in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan, Indonesia. CD-Alky is a process to obtain high-octane, premium gasoline. As it eliminates the need for human contact with sulfuric acid, it reduces overall maintenance, chemical cost and environmental impact for refineries.

Under the agreement, CB&I also will develop a detailed cost estimate and execution plan for the engineering, procurement and construction phase of the project.
