  • How are oil refining plants categorized?
  • Given the varying process configurations implemented in different oil refining plants, it is useful to categorize these plants according to refinery complexity and capacity to process different crude (and other feedstock) grades. Table 2 presents an overview of the commonly adopted refinery types. Table 2.
  • How does petroleum refining work?
  • The first step in petroleum refining is separating that mix through a distillation process. The raw crude oil is heated up to about 500°C. Lighter components, such as those that make up gasoline, vaporize at lower temperatures and are captured. Heavier components, such as home heating oil, vaporize at higher temperatures.
  • How big is the oil refinery industry in 2022?
  • The refinery industry is one of the biggest industries worldwide. According to Statista, the global oil refinery capacity tipped 100 MMbpd in 2022. This capacity reflects nearly a twofold increase since 1970. Jeannie Gardner is the Global Leader of Digital and Asset Transformation at KBC Advanced Technologies, A Yokogawa Company.
  • How to increase petrochemical yield of refinery operations?
  • We see three ways for players to increase the petrochemical yield of refinery operations: change individual process units, change the mix of process units, or build more direct crude-to-chemicals plants. The individual process unit that receives the most attention is the fluid catalytic cracker (FCC), the longtime workhorse of refining.
