No references found | The world's top oil exporter, which was expected to cut back gasoline imports significantly, is forced to keep buying spot barrels due to start-up problems at the new residual fluid catalytic cracking (RFCC) unit at Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical (PetroRabigh) sources familiar with the unit's operations said. Byline: JAKARTA/SINGAPORE: Indonesia's Pertamina has shut a 12,000 barrels per day (bpd) gasoline-making fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit at its Musi refinery for 17 days of maintenance, a spokesman said. In mid-1998 NIOC offered four projects for the refinery to be built and funded by foreign companies on buy-back basis, so that the plant's capacity is raised to 600,000 b/d: modernising the central fluid catalytic cracking unit (FCCU) built by Foster Wheeler in 1950 and raising its capacity from 40,000 to 60,000 b/d; building a 70,000 b/d vacuum distillation unit (VDU); building a 25,000 b/d visbreaker; and building four desalting units with a total capacity of 525,000 b/d. |
