The new facility will be constructed in a different location than the client’s other renewable diesel facilities and developed so it fits into existing assets on the Gulf Coast. With a new site location, the client needed to have a clear understanding of the cost and schedule related to the new facility.

This integrated approach supports our delivery of project development services including process engineering, discipline engineering, estimating, project controls and project/program management. Burns & McDonnell will be the engineer-procure-construct contractor for the project, including construction of both the outside battery limit and inside battery limit (ISBL) scopes of work.

Additionally, our project scope includes supporting the feedstock unloading and blending at a remote railroad with supporting tankage; 15 miles of pipelines to feed from the rail yard to the facility; the feed and intermediate product tankage and piping for the ISBL units; the utility infrastructure for the ISBL units; an amine regeneration unit; a sour water stripper unit; the integration in the refinery utility; and process systems including hydrogen supply, renewable diesel pipelines and a renewable diesel rail car loading.
