The Project

  • Project Type:
  • Project Summary: The new grassroots complex consists of an oil refinery, aimed at processing seven million tons of crude oil per year, a deep conversion complex and a petrochemical complex. The deep conversion complex includes aromatics units, a fluidised catalytic cracker, a distillate hydrocracker, a delayed coker and a gasification plant.
  • The petrochemical complex will include purified terephthalic acid, polyethylene terephthalate, linear alkylbenzene and polypropylene units, plus the associated power generation plants.
  • Main Contractors:
    • Foster Wheeler: FEED
    • Fluor: Providing project management services and select EPC services
    • VNIPIneft: Development of technical documentation and support services for packaging and delivery of equipment installations hydrocracking, hydrogen production and oils.
    • Lurgi: To manage Technology Coordination for Hydrocracker
  • Licences
    • Chevron Lummus Global: license for Isocracking technology

Terminal Capacity

  • Crude Oil:
  • Refined Products:

Crude Supply

  • Domestic Crude
  • Supply will be through a newly built 118.2 km longoil pipeline, which is to connect TANECO with the oil pumping station "Kaleykino (Almetyevsk Region).
  • The crude is heavy and sour.

Products Produced

  • The plants of the Complex will produce 18 kinds of oil refining products from motor fuels of European quality to the components of raw materials to produce a wide range of highly demanded petrochemical products.

History

  • 2011 - First production after completion of phase one
  • 2011 - TANEKO refinery was granted a license by Rostechnadzor for operation of explosion-hazardous production facilities

Other Information

  • The rationale behind the project is to utilise the local heavy crude, rather than have to sell it at a discount.
  • The refinery is actually being built in two stages, with the upgrading units to be added later on.
