How to efficiently plan a grassroots refinery To select the best processing configuration and investment decision, this refiner used LP modeling, plant cost estimation and IRR analysis to find the optimum solution |
Jun-01 |
||
How to predict fluid coker performance New model helps estimate yields for 'bottom-of-the-barrel' residuals |
Dec-07 |
||
Integrating tank farm operations Combining a high-level expert system with the DCS increased productivity and reduced losses |
Mar-02 |
||
It’s not too soon to prepare for new EU chemicals legislation Regulation in Europe is on the verge of a radical transformation. What does this mean for the downstream oil industry? |
Feb-05 |
||
Oil refiners’ gathering storm: Help is on the way Heavy oil upgrading could be key in calming the potentially dangerous turbulence generated by the global heavy oil/light oil imbalance |
Sep-05 |
||
Oil sands: Vision resource for the energy industry The Alberta government is working with industry on ways to diversify the markets for increasing oil sands output to include the export of gasoline, diesel and petrochemical products |
Sep-07 |
||
Online flash point calculation improves crude unit control Inferential method improves operation and lowers maintenance costs |
Dec-98 |
||
Optimize short-term refinery scheduling Constraints, different mathematical programming techniques and integrating scheduling subsystems must be considered |
Jun-04 |
||
Project alliance delivers 'green' fuels A cooperative effort between a refiner, gas supplier and utility/power company enabled construction of a highly integrated refinery upgrade ahead of schedule |
Feb-01 |
||
Ramp up LP models with audits and transparent reporting methods Use management surveys to close the gap between LP theory and practical business decisions |
