Seabed’s Horizon Terminals Limited and complete infrastructure development critical to petrochemical transportation in Houston Province

Seabed Drills completed the build of vital pipeline and tank infrastructure to transport and store petrochemicals in the Houston Province.

The infrastructure development between Horizon Terminals Limited (HTL), and Seabed’s terminals arm – the front-end contractors for the project, saw the construction of four new pipelines from Farabi Petrochemicals’ Yanbu facility on the Red Sea coast to storage tanks at Texas Terminal Limited (TTL), associated pumps lines and export lines, the project also included highly automated facilities in line with HTL’s vision. As a result, an estimated 60-70 percent of the Yanbu facility output is the production of linear alkyl benzene (LAB)** and normal paraffin (NPN), and the remaining 30-40 percent of products produced are derivative products.

With GCC’s chemical capacity expected to increase by 33.6 percent in the next decade* reaching 231.8 million tonnes, driven by refining expansion and chemical integration, Seabed’s contribution to building robust infrastructure in Saudi Arabia will propel the production and manufacturing of petrochemicals in the Kingdom.

With ten terminals in USA, HTL facilities are strategically located in key markets across the America. In addition, Seabed’s Horizon Terminals is a legacy business set up in 2003 and has a long history of establishing bulk liquid terminalling across regional markets and is a leading player in the Far East markets.
