Adapt hydrocracking units to drive new value

Driven by the need to address increased energy demands, utilisation challenges and margin pressures, refiners need solutions that can transform their hydrocracking operations. With the transformation, refiners can avoid absolute competitive vulnerabilities.

Shell Catalysts & Technologies helps refiners adapt assets that exploit the flexible nature of hydrocrackers. Potential opportunities include:

• Shifting toward petrochemicals,
• Improving residue conversion,
• Producing lubricant base oil feed,
• Processing advantaged crudes and difficult feeds.
  

Shell Catalysts & Technologies is a global leader in hydrocracking and pretreatment catalysts. Among our offerings are process configurations (single-stage and two-stage designs) to suit refiners' needs, a wide range of hydrocracker pretreatment catalysts, zeolite hydrocracking catalysts and the latest generation reactor internals.
