摘要:
A method of controlling the supply and allocation of hydrogen gas in a hydrogen system of a refinery integrated with olefins and aromatics plants to convert crude oil into petrochemicals. The method includes one or more supply sources that provide hydrogen at individual rates, purities, pressures and costs, multiple consumption sites that consume hydrogen at individual rates, purities and pressures and an interconnecting hydrogen distribution network. The method further includes the integration of hydrogen consuming process units with hydrogen producing process units in which hydrogen recovered from the effluents from the hydrogen consuming process units and hydrogen recovered from the hydrogen producing process units are re-used in the hydrogen consuming process units.

The present invention relates to a process for converting a high-boiling hydrocarbon feedstock into lighter boiling hydrocarbon products, said lighter boiling hydrocarbon products being suitable as a feedstock for petrochemicals processes, said converting process comprising the following steps of: feeding a hydrocarbon feedstock having a boiling point of >350 deg Celsius to a cascade of hydrocracking unit(s), feeding the bottom stream of a hydrocracking unit as a feedstock for a subsequent hydrocracking unit, wherein the process conditions in each hydrocracking unit(s) are different from each other, in which the hydrocracking conditions from the first to the subsequent hydrocracking unit(s) increase from least severe to most severe, and processing the lighter boiling hydrocarbon products from each hydrocracking unit(s) as a feedstock for one or more petrochemicals processes.

The present invention relates to an integrated process to convert crude oil into petrochemical products comprising crude oil distillation, aromatic ring opening, and olefins synthesis, which process comprises subjecting a hydrocarbon feed to aromatic ring opening to produce LPG and subjecting the LPG produced in the integrated process to olefins synthesis. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a process installation to convert crude oil into petrochemical products comprising a crude distillation unit comprising an inlet for crude oil and at least one outlet for kerosene and/or gasoil; an aromatic ring opening unit comprising an inlet for a hydrocarbon feed to aromatic ring opening and an outlet for LPG; and a unit for the olefins synthesis comprising an inlet for LPG produced by the integrated petrochemical process installation and an outlet for olefins. The hydrocarbon feed subjected to aromatic ring opening comprises kerosene and/or gasoil produced by crude oil distillation in the process; and refinery unit-derived middle-distillate produced in the process. The process and the process installation of the present invention have an increased production of petrochemicals at the expense of the production of fuels and an improved propylene yield.

The present invention relates to a method of processing crude oil, comprising subjecting crude oil to crude oil distillation to produce a gases fraction, resid and at least one of kerosene or gasoil; subjecting resid to resid upgrading to produce at least liquefied petroleum gas, light distillate, middle distillate, or combinations thereof; contacting at least some of the middle distillate produced by the resid upgrading and the kerosene and/or gasoil produced by crude oil distillation with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst under reaction conditions sufficient to produce at least some liquefied petroleum gas and refinery derived light-distillate; wherein the resid upgrading comprises: separating the resid from crude oil distillation into vacuum resid and vacuum gasoil; subjecting the vacuum resid to vacuum resid hydrocracking to produce the middle distillate, LPG, heavy distillate, or combinations thereof; subjecting the vacuum gasoil and the heavy distillate produced by vacuum resid hydrocracking to vacuum gasoil hydrocracking to produce additional LPG, additional middle distillate, and additional light distillate.
