Utah, US-headquartered Savage Services has been picked by Exxon Mobil and Sabic to design, build, and operate a rail facility that will serve their joint venture project, named Gulf Coast Growth Ventures (GCGV), in San Patricio County, Texas, which will be built by Wood Group, McDermott and Turner Industries Group, Chiyoda & Kiewit, and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Zachry Group, creating 6,000 jobs during construction.
The rail facility will be located adjacent to the project and handle railcars transporting polyethylene, a plastic polymer used in the production of commercial and consumer products.
Savage will deliver rail switching and indexing, railcar washing and loading, railcar repairs, and facility maintenance services for the project, which is due to complete in 2021 – in line with GCGV’s planned start-up date of 2022.
