Units Revamps & Retrofits
In a competitive environment, your operations need to be highly flexible to adapt to market fluctuations, in particular to boost Petrochemical production. In addition, the tight margins require careful and efficient molecule management throughout your entire process schemes.
There are multiple solutions to rebalance products slates, including among various units, and ensure efficient molecule management that can be easily implemented through revamps or retrofits.
From Refining to Chemicals, a Switch of the Yield in 4 Stages
The Crude-to-Chemicals (CTC) concept involves merging refining and petrochemical operations, with the primary objective of maximizing chemicals production. It consists in the ultimate degree of integration between a refinery and a petrochemical plant to form a unique complex dedicated to push forward the conversion into valuable petrochemical intermediates (olefins & aromatics).
