I am looking for the contact information of design firms that possess PAO synthetic oil technology; please help me out

In June 2014, a polyalphaolefin (PAO) plant was set to be built in China, which would inject new momentum into the world’s high-viscosity PAO market. A responsible official from Nakel Lubrication Technology Co., Ltd. told Lube Report that the company’s factory in Shanghai is set to produce high-viscosity PAO, which is a raw material used in the manufacture of synthetic lubricants, with large-scale commercial production starting in early July. The completion of the plant marks the successive commissioning, within one year, of the third high-viscosity PAO facility worldwide. Two months ago, ExxonMobil’s metallocene polyalphaolefin base oil (mPAO) plant was built in Bay City, Texas, with an annual production capacity of 50,000 metric tons. Last October, Cyropa’s new factory was also built in Ankerweg, the Netherlands, with an initial PAO production capacity of 5,000 tons per year, which is set to increase to 15,000 tons per year. Domestically, there is Shanghai Nacosynthetics Lubricants: http://www.nacosynthetics.com/press/detail/10/

Nak’s new factory was established in June 2014 in the Shanghai Chemical Industry Park, covering an area of 150 mu. It primarily produces medium-to-high viscosity PAO and alkyl naphthalenes. The capacity of the first phase of this factory is 25,000 tons; the main products include medium-to-high viscosity SinoSyn PAO40/100/150 and SynNaph AN23 alkyl naphthalenes, which are used in the manufacture of synthetic lubricants.

Luan and NAK jointly establish a coal-to-oil poly-α-olefin plant 2015-09-16 Source: Lube Report Author: China Lubricant Network http://www.chinalubricant.com/news/show-89235.html Shanghai NAK Lubrication Technology Co., Ltd. and the Chinese coal company Luan Group established a poly-α-olefin plant in Shanxi Province last month, using coal-to-oil raw materials. An executive at NAK told Lube Report Asia that the plant is designed to produce 15,000 tons per year of 150 centiStoke poly-α-olefin, which is used in domestic heavy-duty diesel engine oils. This product is sold under the SinoSyn brand in nanogram quantities, and can be used as a base oil or a viscosity modifier. The factory in Shanxi is located in Changzhi City; it is a joint venture in which NAK and Lu’an Group each hold 50% of the shares, and it operates as Lu’an-NAK Carbon One Chemical Co., Ltd. The raw materials for this factory come from a coal-to-oil plant operated by Lu’an in the vicinity. Nak said this is the world’s first coal-to-olefins poly-α-olefin project. Nak also operates a wholly-owned poly-α-olefin plant in Shanghai. The plant produces poly-α-olefins with viscosities of 40 cSt and 100 cSt, some of which are sold in the United States through Novitas, headquartered in Texas. Naco said that coal-to-oil poly-α-olefins are intended solely for the domestic market. Polyalphaolefin (PAO) base oil is prepared using FTO a-olefin feedstocks from coal-to-oil processes. The PAO plant is under construction and is scheduled to be completed in June 2015, with operations set to begin in the third quarter. In May 2014, NACK built its first PAO factory in Shanghai, located in the **-grade chemical park in Caojing, Shanghai. Imported α-olefins are primarily used as raw materials, with some of the α-olefin resources from the Shanxi project also being utilized as a supplement. PAO is typically produced by polymerizing and hydrogenating linear α-olefins (LAO) with carbon chain lengths ranging from C8 to C12.

200,000 tons per year of PAO – that’s a really large scale. Domestically, it’s only in the range of 20,000 to 30,000 tons.

Thank you to the enthusiastic forum member. Are there any new updates? How can I get in touch with the design firm? The phone numbers found online are all for sales staff; they know nothing about technical aspects, and they won’t give me the contact details of other technical personnel.

Our company has experience in designing PAO. Where are you guys from?

May I ask which design firm is upstairs?

I work in the PAO industry; 100,000 tons of PAO is already a large scale globally – where would the raw materials for 200,000 tons come from?
