據(jù)安迅思新加坡3月10日消息，韓國(guó)煉油商雙龍煉油公司（S-Oil）已開始在蔚山建設(shè)其原油制化學(xué)品項(xiàng)目，該項(xiàng)目預(yù)計(jì)將為韓國(guó)提供3萬億韓元(23億美元)的附加值。

雙龍煉油公司在一份聲明中表示，該項(xiàng)目于3月9日舉行了破土動(dòng)工儀式，該項(xiàng)目名為沙欣(阿拉伯語為獵鷹)，在建設(shè)高峰期間將創(chuàng)造17000個(gè)就業(yè)崗位，投產(chǎn)后將支持400多個(gè)就業(yè)崗位。

沙特阿美通過其子公司阿美海外公司擁有雙龍煉油公司超過63%的股份。

該項(xiàng)目位于韓國(guó)蔚山市溫山工業(yè)園區(qū)，計(jì)劃于2026年竣工。

該項(xiàng)目將包括一個(gè)180萬噸/年的混合進(jìn)料裂解設(shè)施。

該項(xiàng)目還將包括年產(chǎn)88萬噸線型低密度聚乙烯(LLDPE)裝置以及年產(chǎn)44萬噸高密度聚乙烯(HDPE)裝置。

韓國(guó)雙龍煉油公司表示：“沙欣項(xiàng)目將顯著改善石化原料的穩(wěn)定供應(yīng)，并使蔚山的乙烯生產(chǎn)能力增加一倍以上。它還將通過管道向相鄰的下游烯烴加工企業(yè)供應(yīng)單體產(chǎn)品。”

雙龍煉油公司表示，該生產(chǎn)基地還將有一個(gè)熱原油制化學(xué)品(TC2C)設(shè)施，將原油直接轉(zhuǎn)化為液化石油氣(LPG)和石腦油等石化原料，裂解裝置預(yù)計(jì)將回收廢熱用于煉油廠發(fā)電。

雙龍煉油公司表示：“隨著T2C2新技術(shù)的應(yīng)用，原油和其他低價(jià)值重油將被升級(jí)為蒸汽裂解裝置的原料，該技術(shù)將首次實(shí)現(xiàn)商業(yè)化。”

雙龍煉油公司表示，一旦該項(xiàng)目完成，石化產(chǎn)品在公司總產(chǎn)量中的份額將從目前的12%增加一倍以上，達(dá)到25%。

包括2018年完成的一期項(xiàng)目，蔚山原油制化學(xué)品項(xiàng)目的總投資為14萬億美元，這是沙特阿美在韓國(guó)有史以來最大的投資。

S Korea’s S-Oil begins building $7bn crude-to-chemicals Shaheen project in Ulsan

South Korean refiner S-Oil has started building its crude-to-chemicals project in Ulsan which is expected to provide won (W) 3tr ($2.3bn) in added value to the northeast Asian economy.

A groundbreaking ceremony was conducted on 9 March for the project called Shaheen – Arabic word for falcon – which should generate up to 17,000 jobs during peak construction, and after start-up, should support more than 400 jobs, S-Oil said in a statement.

The company is over 63%-owned by Saudi Aramco through its subsidiary Aramco Overseas Co.

The project located at the onsan Industrial Complex of Ulsan City is slated to be completed in 2026.

It will include a 1.8m tonne/year mixed-feed cracking facility.

The project will further include a 880,000 tonne/year linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) unit; and a 440,000 tonne/year high density polyethylene (HDPE) plant.

“Shaheen will significantly improve the stable supply of petrochemical feedstock and more than double ethylene production capacity in Ulsan. It will also supply monomer products through a pipeline to adjacent downstream olefin-processing businesses,” S-Oil said.

The site will also have a thermal crude-to-chemical (TC2C) facility which will convert crude directly into petrochemical feedstocks such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and naphtha, and the cracker is expected to recycle waste heat for power generation in the refinery, the company said.

“With the deployment of this new [T2C2] technology, which is being commercialized for the first time, crude and other low value heavy oils will be upgraded into steam cracker feedstocks,” S-Oil said.

once the project is completed, petrochemical production will more than double its share to S-Oil’s total output to 25% from 12% currently, it said.

Including the first phase of the project completed in 2018, the total investment in Ulsan’s crude-to-chemical projects is W14tr – the largest ever for Saudi Aramco in South Korea.
