en.Wedoany.com Reported - Kent, a UK-based engineering services company, has been awarded a detailed engineering contract by OXEA for its specialty chemicals project. This development is part of a three-year Master Service Agreement (MSA) signed in 2025, which establishes a framework for providing engineering, procurement, and construction management (EPCM) services across OXEA's operations.

As part of the collaboration, Kent successfully completed the Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) phase for this strategic specialty chemicals project in early 2026. Building on this achievement, OXEA subsequently awarded Kent the detailed engineering phase of the project, with engineering activities now progressing smoothly and scheduled for completion later this year. The project represents a significant investment in specialty chemicals manufacturing, demonstrating OXEA's commitment to enhancing its production capabilities while maintaining high levels of safety, quality, and operational excellence.

In addition to the EPCM program, Kent recently completed a comprehensive laser scanning campaign at OXEA's Bay City facility, providing high-quality digital asset data that will support future engineering, maintenance, and capital project activities.

Tom Bullard, Executive Vice President of Kent Americas, expressed pleasure in continuing to strengthen the relationship with OXEA through this important project and broader engineering services partnership. The successful completion of the FEED phase and subsequent award of detailed engineering demonstrate OXEA's confidence in Kent's technical capabilities, project delivery expertise, and commitment to helping clients achieve their strategic objectives.

This ongoing collaboration highlights Kent's ability to support clients throughout the entire project lifecycle, covering everything from early studies and design to detailed engineering, procurement support, construction management, and operational readiness.
