:Handshake: To facilitate the work of those involved in petrochemical planning, I have listed some information I have at hand; I ask colleagues to add any information they are aware of in this post. Note: All of my data comes from publicly available reports on the Internet. The statistics cover domestic refineries with a capacity of 10 million tons and above, as well as 800,000 tons of ethylene capacity, along with their associated downstream facilities and related investments. Add **details on the petrochemical revitalization plan.** Related content: 40 major projects included in the petrochemical revitalization plan. According to the detailed plans for the petrochemical industry, the overall goal is for the growth rate of this industry to be in line with the overall development pace of the national economy, with an average annual increase in added value of around 15%; by 2011, the added value is expected to reach 1.75 trillion yuan. At the same time, 20 major projects under construction and 20 major new projects have been included in the plan. All of these are based on the adjustment and revitalization plan.   The three-year goals are set in a step-by-step manner. It can be seen from the projects given priority in the plan that products such as refining, ethylene, xylene (PX), purified terephthalic acid (PTA), fertilizers, and olefins receive direct support.   The 20 key construction projects that need to be given close attention include: Fujian Refining’s 700,000-ton PX plant, Huizhou’s 1 million-ton PX plant, Shanghai Petrochemical’s 600,000-ton PX plant, Urumqi in Xinjiang’s 1 million-ton PX plant, Foshan Shishi in Fujian’s 600,000-ton PTA plant, Jiangyin Hanbang in Jiangsu’s 600,000-ton PTA plant, and Fuling in Chongqing’s 600,000-ton PTA plant.   The petrochemical ethylene production capacity includes: 12 million tons of oil refining in Huizhou, Guangdong; 10 million tons of oil refining expansion and upgrade plus 1 million tons of ethylene in Xin*Dushanzi; 12 million tons of oil refining expansion and upgrade plus 800,000 tons of ethylene in Fujian Refining & Chemical; 12.5 million tons of oil refining expansion and upgrade plus 1 million tons of ethylene in Tianjin; 10 million tons of oil refining in Guangxi; 1 million tons of ethylene in Zhenhai; 800,000 tons of ethylene in Fushun; 1.2 million tons of ethylene expansion and upgrade in Daqing; and 500,000 tons of olefins produced from heavy oil in Shenyang. (Add details on the specific supporting projects for each party?) ) The fertilizer projects include: 1.2 million tons of phosphoric ammonium fertilizer produced by Yunnan Yuntianhua, 1 million tons of potash-magnesium fertilizer produced by Qinghai CITIC Guoan, and 800,000 tons of urea produced in Korla, Xinjiang.   It also includes Shenhua Baotou’s 600,000-ton coal-to-olefins project.   In addition to the overall goal, the revitalization plan sets three-year phased goals: maintaining stable operations in 2009, with the growth rate of industrial added value exceeding 10% ; The upgrade of oil product quality was largely completed in 2010, the goals set out in the 11th Five-Year Plan were mostly achieved, and the growth rate of industrial added value reached 15% ; By 2011, the adjustment of the industrial structure and layout was largely completed, the allocation of resources in industrial clusters was continuously improved, institutional and policy-related issues were properly resolved, and the growth rate of industrial added value reached 20%.

The total investment for this project amounts to 16.92605 billion RMB ; China National Petroleum Corporation holds 75%, while Sichuan Chengdu Petrochemical Co., Ltd. holds 25%. Of this amount, 15.84665 billion yuan is allocated to construction investments, while approximately 3.17724 billion yuan is needed for environmental protection efforts; thus, the proportion invested in environmental protection is around 20.05%. The project construction period is 3 years, with production expected to begin in 2010.   1.1 Project Composition, Production Scale, and Product Plan The refining project consists of the main plant, utility systems, auxiliary facilities, storage and transportation systems, and environmental protection measures.

The crude oil processing capacity of this project is 10 million tons per year, of which 6 million tons per year are Kazakhstani crude oil represented by Kumkol oil, 2 million tons per year are crude oil from southern Xinjiang, and 2 million tons per year are crude oil from northern Xinjiang.   The methanol used in this project is purchased from the market, with a consumption volume of 65,100 tons per year.   The annual consumption of natural gas for this project is 311,200 tons, of which 167,600 tons are used as raw material for hydrogen production, and 143,600 tons are used as fuel. Natural gas is purchased from the market and supplied by the Southwest Oilfield Branch of PetroChina.   The fuel used in this project is domestically produced desulfurized dry gas, with any shortfall supplemented by commercial natural gas provided by the Southwest Oilfield Branch of China National Petroleum Corporation. The total fuel consumption is estimated to be around 532,800 tons per year, of which 389,300 tons per year will come from domestically produced desulfurized dry gas, while 143,600 tons per year will be supplied as natural gas from external sources.

Normally it’s just bits and pieces of information; here, they’re compiled together, which saves us time. Thank you, friends :) :)

Could the design institute in charge of these projects provide some additional information?
Reply #112009-04-21
The overall design firm for Chongqing’s MDI integration project is Chengdu Chengda Company, which was formerly known as the Eighth Chemical Research Institute. The design firm for Dalian Petrochemical’s expansion project to process sulfur-containing crude oil from Russia seems to be Sinopec Luoyang Petrochemical Engineering Company. Everyone can also share information regarding project management, such as the project management company (PMC) and the supervision agency, etc. This post was last edited by Ponny on 2009-4-21 at 11:16

I didn’t see any introduction to the Guangxi Petrochemical refining project, so let’s add that information. CNPC’s Guangxi Petrochemical refinery with a capacity of 10 million tons per year is located in the Qinzhou Port Economic Development Zone along the Beibu Gulf in southern China. Its main purpose is to process a portion of the crude oil produced by CNPC overseas. The main units include key production facilities such as 10 million tons per year of atmospheric and vacuum distillation, 3.5 million tons per year of heavy oil catalytic cracking, 2.2 million tons per year of wax oil hydrocracking, 2.2 million tons per year of continuous reforming, 2.4 million tons per year of diesel hydrotreating, 600,000 tons per year of gas fractionation, 1.2 million tons per year of gasoline hydrotreating, 200,000 tons per year of polypropylene production, and 10,000 tons per year of sulfur recovery; in addition, there are supporting facilities such as utility systems, tank farms, docks and dock storage areas, and dedicated railway lines. The process technologies are mostly introduced from abroad. The basic design is mainly carried out by foreign companies, while the detailed design is entrusted to domestic engineering firms; the main design institute is the PetroChina East China Design Institute.
