Pressure-relief devices play a critical role in the hydrocarbon processing industry.
It is widely accepted that new management methods are needed to curb the frequent delays and cost overruns observed in engineering and construction projects.
Greenhouse gas emissions occur alongside an inflection point for global refined product consumption. Since the 1850s—when the first oil refineries were constructed—the world has changed dramatically as refined product demand has continued inexorably upward.
A sensitivity analysis study evaluates uncertainties in a model’s output based on the changes in the input parameters of the model.
Oil and gas, petrochemical and chemical companies face the difficult challenge of maximizing profitability while achieving aggressive decarbonization objectives set for 2030 and beyond.
During the 1960s, the global refining and petrochemical industries witnessed new processes and products that enhanced the daily lives of millions of people around the world.
Accurate catalyst evaluation is an important step in optimizing catalytic processes with respect to product yield, energy efficiency and overall product quality.
This two-part article will cover the seven pathways to decarbonizing the oil and gas and petrochemical industries.
Hydroprocessing catalysts are an essential part of any refinery involved in the treatment/conversion of most petroleum fractions ranging from naphtha to residue.
