Sluiskil — GE Oil & Gas reports that it has signed a 12-year contractual service agreement with Yara International ASA to maintain an array of GE rotating equipment at Yara’s fertilizer complex in Sluiskil, in the province of Zeeland, the Netherlands. GE will provide maintenance and services for 45 compressors, gas and steam turbines, and turbo expanders at the site. This new agreement is part of a long-lasting business relationship between GE and Yara, which was taken further in 2000 with an extended parts and services frame agreement. Yara’s Sluiskil site features Europe’s largest installed ammonia and nitrate fertilizer production capacities, with three ammonia plants, four CO2 plants, two nitric acid plants, two urea plants, and two nitrate granulation plants. Sluiskil has both Yara’s and Europe’s largest installed ammonia and nitrate fertilizer capacities.
