Ufa oil refinery catalytic cracker reactor sector increases after retrofitting output

At the industrial site of Ufa Oil Refinery -- a branch of Bashneft-Ufaneftekhim -- the retrofitting of rector sector of catalytic cracking vacuum gasoil hydrofining plant was completed aimed at expansion of Euro-5 high-octane petrols production from dark petroleum oils.

The retrofitting contributed to 4.7% growth of the plant average daily output by volumes of vacuum gasoil treatment and 11.8% growth in terms of stable petrol production. Additionally, due to the retrofitting the average life of the catalyst used in the process was doubled -- from 2 to 4 years.

The project was implemented during the plant scheduled overhaul 8 days ahead of the schedule.
