The Yan'an Petrochemical Plant (延安石油化工厂) is a downstream petrochemical processing facility co-located with the Yan'an Refinery approximately 4 km to the South in Qinlao Road, Luochuan County, Yan'an City, Shaanxi Province, China (陕西省延安市洛川县秦老路). Commissioned in 2009, it is operated by the Yanchang Petroleum Group Refining & Chemical Company — a wholly owned subsidiary of Shaanxi Yanchang Petroleum (Group) Co., Ltd. — and represents the group's integrated step from fuel refining into petrochemical production. The plant processes naphtha and refinery intermediates from the adjacent Yan'an Refinery through continuous catalytic reforming, diesel hydrotreating, and polypropylene production units, with a combined secondary processing capacity of approximately 2.8 million mt/yr. Together with the Yan'an Refinery, it forms the core of the Yan'an refining and petrochemical hub, and both facilities are designated for decommissioning and replacement under the group's transformative RMB 80.29 billion integrated project.
