The Project
- Project Type: The refinery is upgrading to meet Euro 4 diesel standards & Euro 5 Gasoline standards
- Project Summary:
- Diesel Specifications
- Ukrtatnafta has contracted CRI/Criterion Catalyst Company Ltd (Criterion) and Shell Global Solutions Eastern Europe B.V. – to supply Shell reactor internals and Criterion’s latest, most advanced catalyst system.
- The equipment and catalyst system will be utilised to revamp a diesel hydrotreater unit to allow hydrotreating of vacuum gas oil.
- Gasoline Specifications
- The project involves the addition of Prime-G+, naphtha hydrotreating, and DIH isomerization units.The combined naphtha fractions from the two existing fluidized catalytic crackers will be fed to a 610,000 metric ton per year (MTA) Prime-G+ unit, where the product sulfur content will be lowered to 20 ppm.
- The C5-C6 straight-run and catalytic reforming fractions will be processed in a 380,000 MTA hydrotreater, then isomerized in a de-isohexanizer-type isomerization unit to produce an 88 research octane number (RON) light gasoline cut.
- The detailed engineering is performed by Ukrneftekhimproekt based in Kiev.
