Reliance Industries and Bechtel of USA have
reportedly formed an equal joint venture for executing engineering and
construction projects in India. The JV is already working on the 27 million tpa
Jamnagar refinery (expansion) project in Gujarat, and other projects would be
taken up in future.
Bechtel, a leading engineering and project
management contractor based in USA, was associated with Reliance Industries’
greenfield Jamnagar petroleum refinery project that was commissioned in July
1999.
