KBR Wins 10-Year Catalyst Supply Contract From Indorama

KBR has been awarded a 10-year catalyst supply contract by Indorama Eleme Fertilizer & Chemicals FZE for its entire ammonia plant portfolio. This marks the first long-term catalyst agreement for KBR in the ammonia sector and reinforces the company's position as a leading ammonia solutions provider globally. Under the contract, KBR will provide complete catalyst solutions for Indorama's six ammonia plants in Nigeria, Georgia, Uzbekistan and India. The scope covers supply, optimisation and lifecycle support to enhance plant performance.

KBR's president of Sustainable Technology Solutions, Jay Ibrahim, noted that the agreement builds on a long relationship with Indorama spanning multiple ammonia projects and decades of collaboration, and that the project extends support beyond technology licensing into long-term catalyst solutions. He added that KBR is committed to delivering differentiated, high-performance technologies designed to achieve optimal plant performance and create sustained value. The company expects Indorama to benefit from enhanced efficiency, improved reliability and stronger operational performance across its global ammonia portfolio.

For more than 75 years KBR has delivered ammonia technology, proprietary equipment and catalysts across the globe, supporting efficient and sustainable fertiliser production for customers worldwide. The new contract represents a strategic expansion of KBR's services into long-term material provision and optimisation for large scale fertiliser assets. Indorama's selection of a single supplier for catalyst solutions is aimed at standardising performance and leveraging lessons from diverse operating environments to drive consistent uptime and output.

Industry observers note that long-term catalyst agreements can align incentives between licensor and operator by linking material supply with operational outcomes and optimisation programmes. KBR will be responsible for ongoing catalyst supply planning, technical support and application engineering to support plant reliability and emissions performance where relevant. The partnership is expected to influence future decisions on lifecycle services for ammonia assets in emerging and established markets.
