L&T Flags Off Heavy Reactors For PEMEX
Larsen & Toubro Heavy Engineering on Friday flagged off five reactors for PEMEX’s Miguel Hidalgo (Tula) refinery in Mexico. These equipment will be dispatched to Pemex Transformación Industrial (PTRI), a subsidiary of Mexico’s state-owned oil company PEMEX (Petróleos Mexicanos).
These reactors will be installed at the Tula refinery for desulphurization of fuel to produce better and cleaner gasoline and other refined products. This is a benchmark project for L&T Heavy Engineering as it is the fourth consecutive order L&T has received for a Mexican refinery.
Anil V. Parab, Whole-Time Director & Sr. Executive Vice President, (Heavy Engineering & L&T Valves) said, “This order demonstrates L&T's ability to provide high-quality products to the energy sector even beyond boundaries. Our focus on high-end products, in-house development of distinctive manufacturing technologies and various digitalisation initiatives have positioned us as a reliable partner to our clientele".
