reducing debt, increasing capital investments,

00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:17,820
and modernizing business models.

00:00:17,820 --> 00:00:20,460
Meanwhile, uncertainty abounds.

8
00:00:20,460 --> 00:00:22,560
Refiners are faced with challenges,

9
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:24,780
including oil price volatility,

10
00:00:24,780 --> 00:00:26,790
changing consumer preferences,

11
00:00:26,790 --> 00:00:30,000
and pressure to decarbonize faster.

12
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,740
When facing these dilemmas,

13
00:00:31,740 --> 00:00:34,230
how can refiners make smart investments

14
00:00:34,230 --> 00:00:37,020
and maintain their competitive position?

00:00:37,020 --> 00:00:39,300
We need to start making smart changes

16
00:00:39,300 --> 00:00:41,910

and prepare for the future.

19
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,740
we see this as a time for reinvention.

Out of uncertainty comes opportunity.

21
00:00:53,130 --> 00:00:54,810
Through refinery revamps,

22
00:00:54,810 --> 00:00:57,750
our experts can help transform operations

23
00:00:57,750 --> 00:00:59,370
and optimize efficiency

24
00:00:59,370 --> 00:01:03,330
by co-creating tailored solutions for existing assets.

25
00:01:03,330 --> 00:01:06,030

Revamps often require minimal capital expenditure.

29
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,850
Even complex revamps may only cost 20 to 50%

30
00:01:20,850 --> 00:01:24,210
of the capital required to build a new unit.

31
00:01:24,210 --> 00:01:26,730
This means that upgrading your existing assets

32
00:01:26,730 --> 00:01:29,640
can yield a significantly quicker return on investment

33
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,310
compared to building a grassroots unit.

34
00:01:32,310 --> 00:01:33,690
And most importantly,

35
00:01:33,690 --> 00:01:37,950
revamps can help refiners thrive in the new reality.

36
00:01:37,950 --> 00:01:40,620
