How many process gas compressors are needed for a 10-million-ton refining project?

It’s been over a decade since I left the refinery; nowadays, compressors are likely of the centrifugal type, with a very high volume of air output, around hundreds of thousand cubic meters per hour. You can estimate roughly how many there are.

I understand that modern medium-sized compressors can achieve 250,000 M3 per hour

How long is the process for your refining project? Does it include olefins and aromatics, and does it follow a coking route or a residue hydrogenation route? This difference is very significant, and for a given set of equipment, different manufacturing processes may require different numbers of compressors.
