In this enhanced video platform, the editors speak with the operators and technology leaders and suppliers that are optimizing the global hydrocarbon processing industry (HPI). http://hydrocarbonprocessing.com/magazine/2024/may-2024/columns/editorial-comment-boosting-bio-content-in-processing-feeds-challenges-and-solutions-driving-the-energy-transition/ Around the world, nations have instituted pathways to reduce emissions within their economies. These initiatives include various investments in carbon mitigation strategies such as boosting domestic renewables capacity, utilizing low-/zero-carbon fuels for power generation (e.g., green hydrogen), adding carbon capture technologies to projects and industrial installations, and increasing bio-content in transportation fuels, among others. http://hydrocarbonprocessing.com/news/2024/05/repsol-renewable-fuels-are-key-to-the-transformation-of-the-refining-industry/ Along with hydrogen production, the production of renewable fuels and gases from organic waste is one of the main examples of the transformation of the industry, which will generate employment and decarbonize the sector. Here, Repsol discusses several pathways the company is taking to produce additional renewable fuels, while decarbonizing operations. http://hydrocarbonprocessing.com/news/2024/05/pemex-is-delivering-only-a-fraction-of-feedstock-to-new-olmeca-refinery/ Mexican state energy company Pemex started sending 16,300 bpd of crude oil to its new Olmeca refinery this week, less than 5% of its total capacity, signaling another delay. http://hydrocarbonprocessing.com/news/2024/05/gulfstream-lng-export-terminal-us-receives-us-ferc-approval/ Gulfstream LNG, under development in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana, announced that it has received the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approval to commence the pre-filing permitting process, kicking off the regulatory review for its proposed 4-MMtpy modular export facility. http://hydrocarbonprocessing.com/news/2024/05/mammoet-successfully-transportsinstalls-record-breaking-hydrocracker-for-orlen-lietuva-refinery/ The ORLEN Lietuva refinery in Mažeikiai, Lithuania, entrusted Mammoet with the transportation and installation of a massive residue hydrocracking unit (RHCU), weighing 1,500 t and standing over 50 m tall. http://hydrocarbonprocessing.com/news/2024/05/russias-tuapse-oil-refinery-resumes-operations-after-attack/ Rosneft's Black Sea oil refinery in Tuapse resumed operations on Sunday after a drone attack. http://hydrocarbonprocessing.com/news/2024/05/pakistan-china-to-sign-mou-on-oil-to-chemicals-complex-in-june/ During Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's visit to Beijing in June, China and Pakistan are expected to sign a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on a crude-to-petrochemical refinery project. http://hydrocarbonprocessing.com/news/2024/05/hif-global-selects-johnson-matthey-s-methanol-technology-for-the-largest-e-methanol-plant-in-south-america/ Johnson Matthey has been selected by HIF Global as the methanol licensor for HIF Global’s $4-B Paysandú eFuels project in Uruguay, the largest e-methanol plant in South America. http://hydrocarbonprocessing.com/news/2024/05/ineos-inovyn-launches-next-generation-recycling-pilot-plants-to-strengthen-europe-s-pvc-recycling/ INEOS Inovyn launches two new PVC pilot plants at our Jemeppe-sur-Sambre site in Belgium, to accelerate technologies for recycling PVC which are not mechanically recyclable today.
