How much does it cost to invest in a 200,000-ton capacity small-scale oil refinery?
Thread Content
If a small refinery with an annual capacity of 200,000 tons is built in the domestic market, equipped with only one atmospheric distillation unit for producing diesel, naphtha, and atmospheric residue, along with complete storage, transportation, and supporting systems and a moderate level of automation, how much would the investment be approximately? Or provide an opinion on the investment situation for small refineries. Thank you :)
With water and electricity supply available in the vicinity, investment costs might be lower.
Considering the availability of water and power sources outside the site, how much funding is required for the construction of the entire refinery?
A project with a capacity of 500,000 tons requires around 400 million yuan. For a project with a capacity of 200,000 tons, if all the equipment is second-hand along with other components, it would still cost at least 80 million to 150 million yuan.
If the raw materials are waste mineral oil + second-hand equipment + others, the total investment does not exceed 70–80 million.
Very useful information, thank you:handshake
Such projects can only be built in remote border areas or aging oil fields, such as Xinjiang. It’s also hard to find production operators
I guess this is using a domestic project as an example; in reality, the project is likely abroad. It’s hard to calculate this investment – to what standard does your diesel need to be desulfurized?
Is it true that now, any vacuum distillation process with a capacity of less than 5 million tons is not approved?
Besides, such a small unit has high energy consumption; atmospheric and vacuum distillation processes are not profitable in the first place, so there’s little economic sense in building such a small facility
You can build such a small device – that’s impressive. But have you considered whether it can generate any money?
