Oil refinery/petrochemical integration in a CO2-constrained world—Part 1
Petrochemical demand will increase with gross domestic product, while motor fuel demand will only show modest growth and may even decline in certain regions, given environmental/legislative pressure and the introduction of battery-powered electric vehicles.
Executive Viewpoint: It was the best of times
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness…”. Fortunately, this opening line from A Tale of Two Cities does not often present itself as an appropriate analogy to the oil and gas industry. Yet, here we are.
Executive Viewpoint: Technology to drive decarbonization of the oil and gas industry
<i>Hydrocarbon Processing</i> (HP) was pleased to speak with Thorbjoern Fors (TF), EVP of Industrial Applications, Siemens Energy, to discuss the decarbonization of the oil and gas industry and the technologies that are helping companies meet their sustainability goals.
Determining the indeterminate
Standards such as API, ASME and NFPA are applied widely in the refining industry.
Leveraging digital technologies to create the smart renewable diesel facility
Many companies are modifying existing crude refineries or building grassroots renewable diesel facilities to produce drop-in, green renewable diesel from a variety of agriculturally derived triglyceride feedstocks.
Converting a petroleum diesel refinery for renewable diesel
As refiners consider renewable, low-carbon alternatives, renewable diesel—refined from agricultural products using petroleum refinery processes—is gaining traction.
Industry Perspectives: H2Tech Solutions: Advancing hydrogen technologies
As announced in the January issue of <i>Hydrocarbon Processing</i>, Gulf Energy Information—publisher of <i>Hydrocarbon Processing</i> and <i>Gas Processing & LNG</i>—has launched the publication <i>H2Tech</i>.
Stop oxidation and scale growth with high-emissivity coating
Oxidation of external tube surfaces is responsible for metal loss at around 0.25 mm/yr, which limits tube life.
