Leveraging hydrocracker flexibility

Those with a hydrocracker in their line-up have a distinct advantage because its flexibility could be increased for relatively low capex. For example, it can be upgraded to process heavier, cheaper crudes and non-standard feeds. It can also be revamped to enable the operator to target the products that are commanding the highest margins or have a better longer-term outlook.

So, in this webinar we will profile real-world case studies that demonstrate how hydrocracker upgrades have enabled:

An Asia Pacific refiner to produce more petrochemicals feedstock;
a European refiner to run a deasphalted oil hydrocracker at close to 90% conversion; and
a US refiner to significantly improve its feedstock and product slate flexibility, and also its capacity.

Shell Catalysts & Technologies is committed to sharing knowledge, expertise and best practices.
