The PMB Refinery and Petrochemical Plant at Pulau Muara Besar and the BFI Plant are Brunei's two major downstream oil and gas developments.[5] The plant is divided into three sections: onsite utilities, ammonia plants, and urea plants. The export of the goods will go to the local agricultural sector.[6]

Production

With 1.29 million tonnes per annum (mtpa), urea has the largest capacity share, accounting for 63.9% of the complex's total annual capacity. Ammonia comes in second with 36.1%. (0.73mtpa). Future projects, such as the Brunei Fertilizer Industries Brunei Urea Plant and the Brunei Fertilizer Industries Brunei Ammonia Plant, are expected to increase the complex's capacity (1.29mtpa).[7] The facility, which has a nameplate capacity of 3900mt per day.[8]

As of February 2019, the 500 No. of steel pipe piles for the Urea Export Jetty must be driven in record time while conforming to the requirements of the oil and gas safety standards due to the high demands of a fast-tracked project and the tight deadline. The fully integrated fertilizer plant in Sungai Liang will produce 3,900 Tons of urea per day once it is finished in 2021, helping to meet the growing global demand for food crops.[9]

The operator of Muara Port, MPC, is best equipped to handle the fertilizer shipments, according to BFI, which plans to export granular urea to far-off markets including India, Australia, Latin America, and the United States.[15]

The company' new urea melt facility was successfully started up and is the biggest Stamicarbon has ever permitted.[8] On 16 January 2022, the first granules were discharged from the manufacturing line with assistance from Stamicarbon Process Engineers.[16] On 23 January, BFI successfully completed its construction and produced its first commercial batch of urea in compliance with market requirements. To progressively raise output to reach its nameplate capacity of 3,900 tonnes, the firm is now recording production volumes that surpass 3,000 tonnes per day.[2] The first two granular urea cargoes, each containing 6,000–7,000t, have been sold by BFI for delivery to South Korea and Thailand in February.[17][18]
