AG&P Industrial sets sail first of 4 module shipments for Ampol Australia’s refinery upgrade

MANILA, Philippines – AG&P Industrial (Atlantic, Gulf, & Pacific Company of Manila, Inc.), a diversified, full-asset lifecycle engineering, procurement, fabrication, construction, installation, and commissioning (EPFCIC) infrastructure development and operations and maintenance (O&M) company, has successfully completed the first of four module shipments from its state-of-the-art fabrication yard in Batangas, Philippines to Lytton refinery in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia for the Ampol Future Fuels Gasoline Desulphurisation Project.

AG&P Industrial signed an agreement with Kent PLC to manufacture process and pipe rack modules as well as pre-assembled support structures for Ampol’s major refinery upgrade. This will enable the refinery to lower its fuel emissions and meet the Euro 6 sulphur emissions legislation implemented by the Australian government, which mandates all fuels in Australia to contain less than 10ppm sulphur by 2025.

AG&P’s scope of work in the project includes detailed shop drawing, procurement, fabrication and erection of 20 pre-assembled pipe racks (PAR), 16 pre-assembled units (PAU), and 29 pre- assembled support (PAS) structures. The project is expected to be completed by February 2025.

Alex Gamboa, president and managing director of Global Business Development, AG&P Industrial, shared that the project is expected to progress as scheduled, with over 800,000 safe man-hours as of early July.

“We are proud of the successful and timely execution of the shipment. Our partnership with Ampol Refineries and Kent PLC is critical in advancing clean energy in Queensland, Australia. It demonstrates our commitment to clean energy and sustainable initiatives, backed by our expertise in delivering high-value engineering and modular solutions for energy and industrial infrastructure worldwide. We look forward to continuing this long-standing partnership with Ampol Refineries and Kent PLC and tackling more transformative projects together in the future,” Gamboa said.
