Lukoil Perm Refinery Tender

Location Perm RussiaScope The feedstock capacity of the complex will be 1.8 million tonnes per year. The complex will include a catalytic cracking unit a high-octane gasoline components unit and infrastructure facilities. A distinctive feature of the new complex will be the high adjustable propylene yield.The complex is planned to be launched in 2026 which will allow to increase production of high-octane motor gasolines and to start production of polymer grade propylene to be used as a feedstock at LUKOILs petrochemical facilities. The Perm refinery in Russia has been operational since November 1958 and became part of the Lukoil Group in 1991.Owned and operated by Lukoil-Permnefteorgsintez a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lukoil the refinery has a crude oil processing capacity of 13.1 million tonnes a year Mtpa.The Lukoil Perm refinery had a Nelson Complexity Index NCI of 9.4 with a 69.2 light product yield and a 98.2 refining depth in 2020.Lukoil launched the construction of a catalytic cracking complex at the refinery in August 2021. Scheduled to start operations in 2026 the new complex will handle 1.8Mtpa of feedstock to enhance the refinerys high-octane motor gasoline output as well as enable the production of propylene feedstock for petrochemical plants. Processing facilities at Perm oil refineryThe various processing modules in the Perm refinery include a 259500 barrels per day bpd crude distillation unit a 116300bpd vacuum distillation facility a 56000bpd coking unit a 9300bpd catalytic cracking unit a 36900bpd catalytic reforming unit and a 65200bpd catalytic hydrocracking unit.The refinery also houses a 131000bpd catalytic hydrotreating unit a 2200bpd aromatics unit and a 13000bpd isomerisation unit apart from a diesel hydrotreatment unit.The other facilities in the refinery include a 9400bpd lubricants production unit a 15100bpd bitumen production unit a 56.5 million cubic feet a day Mcfd hydrogen production unit and a 316t a day tpd sulphur production unit.The new catalytic cracking complex being built in the refinery will have a catalytic cracking unit along with a facility to produce high-octane gasoline components.Gas processing complex at Perm refineryThe refinerys gas processing complex has an annual gas processing capacity of 1460 million cubic metres Mcm and a natural gas liquids NGL processing capacity of 1.7Mtpa. Commissioned in 1969 the gas processing facilities have been part of the Lukoil Group since 1998.It receives associated gas from Lukoil-operated fields in the northern part of the Volga Urals Basin as well as the broad fraction of light hydrocarbons BFLH from the Lokosovsky gas processing plant.Recently completed projects at the refineryA 200MW combined heat and power CHP plant with 435 Giga calories per hour Gcalh heating capacity was commissioned at the Perm refinery in 2015 while the reconst
