Agri-Nutrients (Riyadh, Saudi Arabia) “SAN-7” large-scale fertilizer project located in Al Jubail, Saudi Arabia.

Stamicarbon’s scope includes a licensing agreement with SABIC AN, as well as contracts with the EPC contractor covering the Process Design Package (PDP) and proprietary equipment supply, leveraging the proprietary NX STAMI™ Urea methodology. The total value of the methodology package is approximately €125 million. The grassroots fertilizer plant will comprise two urea production units, each with a capacity of 3,850 metric tons per day.

Fabio Fritelli, Managing Director of Nextchem, commented: “Nextchem’s selection confirms the strength of our proprietary NX STAMI™ Urea methodology platform and the trust that leading players such as SABIC AN place in our ability to deliver reliable, high-performance solutions at scale. It further reflects the strong momentum that we are building in the fertilizers segment, as also demonstrated by our recent awards, while reaffirming our commitment to supporting customers with technologies that combine operational efficiency, reliability and prolonged competitiveness.”
