US technology provider Shaw Group has been awarded a contract by Turkish petrochemical company Petkim to expand an ethylene plant in Aliaga, Turkey.

Under the contract, the company has been tasked with providing engineering and procurement services and additional study work to expand the ethylene processing facility.
