Overview
LP models allow a complete assessment of the configuration options that lead to enhanced knowledge of refinery technology, process licensor offerings, and eventually lead to selecting the right combination of technologies and unit capacities that best suit the market conditions. LP can be used to maximize refinery margin, devise strategies to meet product demand of high-value products, and evaluate additional crude processing options and also for the new refinery as well as green-field refinery projects such as refinery expansion, unit addition and for removing capacity bottlenecks.
With our extensive LP knowledge and experience, we ensure that our solutions are optimized from every important aspect including economic return, operability, and the flexibility to deal with future changes in your facility’s feed or product slate and environmental norms. Along with the margin study, we also evaluate the costing, return on investment and find ways to squeeze unexplored value from existing assets / with addition of new units and assess operating cost of the processing units.
LP for Technology Selection:
Product yield/specifications
Ultra-Low "S" Gasoline or Diesel.
0.5 Wt.% "S" Bunker Marine Fuel.
Mandatory subsidized supply.
Essential modelling complexity
Delta structure to represent process unit yield.
Process unit models with multiple feed modes.
Process unit models for:
Green-field refinery projects which include units such as Alkylation.
Cracking refineries which include units such as Catalytic cracking.
Sensitivity check
Make a sensitivity check through long term strategic plan cases for assessment of the impact of Unit turn-down frequency, catalyst cycle-length and start-up requirements.
