Refining Process Overview

Our integrated refining processes utilize cutting-edge technology to maximize efficiency, product yield, and operational reliability.

1

Crude Oil Distillation

Incoming crude oil is heated and separated into various fractions based on boiling points in our atmospheric and vacuum distillation units. This initial separation process is the foundation for all downstream refining operations.

Advanced monitoring systems ensure optimal temperature control and fraction separation, maximizing yield and energy efficiency.

2

Conversion & Upgrading

Heavy fractions are converted into higher-value products through fluid catalytic cracking, hydrocracking, and coking processes. These advanced conversion units increase gasoline and diesel yields while reducing heavy fuel oil production.

Proprietary catalyst technologies and process controls optimize conversion efficiency and product quality.

3

Treatment & Purification

Intermediate products undergo treatment to remove impurities such as sulfur, nitrogen, and metals. Our hydrotreating and reforming units ensure all products meet stringent environmental specifications and quality standards.

Continuous online analyzers monitor product quality throughout the treatment process, enabling real-time adjustments.

4

Blending & Finishing

Final products are blended to exact specifications using automated in-line blending systems. Additives are incorporated to enhance performance characteristics such as octane rating, cetane number, and stability.

Advanced laboratory testing confirms all finished products meet or exceed international quality standards before dispatch.
