Supporting facilities for atmospheric and vacuum distillation, catalytic processes, and ethylene plants

Dear experts, for a crude oil distillation unit with a capacity of 10 million tons, how many million tons of catalytic units and how many million tons of ethylene production units are typically required? Is the scale of the accompanying ethylene plant determined mainly by the amount of naphtha or other materials? Thank you
Generally, for 1 million tons of ethylene, it mainly depends on the amount of naphtha
Don’t you have a hydrogenation unit? At least two units of 1 million each of ethylene can be used. The amount of catalysis depends to some extent on the distribution of your products; there are various types of catalysts used for feeding light and heavy components.
