HOUSTON, Oct. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- KBR, Inc. (NYSE: KBR) announced today that it has been awarded a contract by Linggu Chemical Co. Ltd (Linggu) for an ammonia plant in Yixing City, Jiangsu Province in China.

Under the terms of the contract, KBR will provide the technology licensing and basic engineering design (LBED) package for building a new 1,500 metric tons per day ammonia synthesis unit as a replacement for one of their existing units in Yixing, China. The plant will utilize KBR's proprietary ammonia synloop technology.

"With KBR's advanced ammonia synthesis technology, we believe our plants will stand out in the coal-to-ammonia market in China," said Mr. Tan Fuyuan, Chairman of Linggu.

"We are honored to deliver this second ammonia unit to Linggu," said John Derbyshire, KBR President, Technology. "This project award showcases the superiority of KBR's Ammonia Synthesis Technology and its great fit for the market needs in China."
