Rpl Achieves Overall Project Progress of 65% Refinery on Track for Timely Completion
JAMNAGAR (Gujarat), 16th July 2007: Reliance Petroleum Limited (“RPL”) continues to
make rapid progress in implementation of its large, complex refinery, coming up in a SEZ at
Jamnagar. Reflecting rapid strides made on all implementation fronts, RPL has achieved
overall project progress of 65% - in just 19 months since commencement of the Project. With
engineering and procurement activities nearing completion and required site infrastructure
mobilised to sustain the fast pace of construction, RPL refinery is well on track for completion
by December 2008.
During the quarter, project implementation gained further momentum and led to achievement
of several significant milestones, including the following:
• Engineering efforts peaked and cumulative engineering progress crossed the 90% mark.
• Procurement and contracting activities nearly completed.
• Deliveries of critical, long lead equipments and over dimensional consignments (ODCs)
have commenced and their installation is underway.
• Civil construction is nearing completion
• Dramatic change in the skylines with over 500 equipments already installed at the site.
The progress on the engineering front has been excellent. The entire scope of drawings for
concreting and underground piping is released for construction. Over 90% of drawings
required for structural steel fabrication and 85% of piping have been completed. The focus
has shifted towards engineering close-out for most of the units. This massive team effort
involved over 7,500 engineers, who worked from several interconnected locations across the
world.
The quarter witnessed near completion of procurement activities for most equipments,
tagged items and substantial part of bulk materials. Deliveries and installation of critical, long
lead and heavy equipments have commenced. Focus is now on vendor expediting and
follow-up to ensure compliance with quality and delivery commitments for the balance
equipments.
The construction activities gained further momentum with massive resource mobilisation
efforts and near peak implementation force already at the site. Over 1.3 million cubic meters
of concrete has been poured so far. On the back of remarkable construction progress, 50%
of structural steel fabrication, 75% of tankage fabrication and nearly 30% of pipe fabrication
and installation has also been completed.
Meanwhile, the global industry fundamentals have strengthened further and promise exciting
value creation opportunities for large and complex refiners. Supported by robust economic
growth outlook, global demand for petroleum products is expected to grow stronger. Slow
growth in capacities due to thrust on modernisation and upgrades by existing refiners and
continuing delays in new capacities are expected to keep supplies under pressure and throw
open exciting trade opportunities especially for ultra clean transportation fuels. Reflecting the
skewed demand supply balance, refining margins are expected to remain firm in the
foreseeable future. Complex refiners will gain further from the continuing wider light heavy
differentials.
Commenting on the project progress at the maiden Annual General Meeting of the Company
since the IPO, Mr Mukesh Ambani, Chairman of RPL said “We are well on our way to
recreate history of successfully completing the project in a record time frame. I am pleased
with the rapid progress achieved by RPL on all fronts of implementation. I would like to
compliment the entire RPL team for a successful lift-off of the project. The team is fully
equipped to sustain the rapid pace of construction in the coming quarters. “

Ras Lanuf Refinery $63.73 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Ras Lanuf Refinery is a topping and reforming oil refinery in the city of R s L n f, Libya. It is part of a larger petrochemical complex also consisting of an ethylene plant, a polyethylene plant, plant utilities, and Ras Lanuf Harbor. The complex is operated by the Ras Lanuf Oil Gas Processing Company (RASCO), a subsidiary of the National Oil Corporation. The Ras Lanuf Refinery became operational during 1984. In 2007, the decision to expand the refinery for the production of benzene, butadiene, and MTBE was made. For the refinery expansion, NOC concluded a 2 billion contract with the Star Consortium, a joint company of the Al Ghurair Investmentss subsidiary TransAsia Gas International and ETA Ascon Star Groups subsidiary Star Petro Energy, to establish a joint venture with Dow Chemical Company.

The Refinery of the Future $160 As feedstocks to refineries change, there must be an accompanying change in refinery technology. This means a movement from conventional means of refining heavy feedstocks using (typically) coking technologies to more innovative processes that will coax the last drips of liquid fuels from the feedstock. This book presents the evolution of refinery processes during the last century and as well as the means by which refinery processes will evolve during the next three-to-five decades. Chapters contain material relevant to (1) comparisons of current feedstocks with heavy oil and bio-feedstocks; (2) evolution of refineries since the 1950s, (3) properties and refinability of heavy oil and bio-feedstocks, (4) thermal processes vs. hydroprocesses, and (5) evolution of products to match the environmental market. Process innovations that have influenced refinery processing over the past three decades are presented, as well as the relevant patents that have the potential for incorporation into future refineries. Comparison of current feedstocks with heavy oil and bio-feedstocks. Evolution of refineries over the past three decades. Properties and refinability of heavy oil and bio-feedstocks. Thermal processes vs. Hydroprocesses. Evolution of products to match the environmental market. * Investigates the engineering and plant design challenges presented by heavy oil and bio-feedstocks * Explores the legislatory and regulatory climate, including increasingly stringent environmental requirements * Examines the trade-offs of thermal processes vs. hydroprocesses |
