Guangxi Petrochemical Refining and Chemical Integration Transformation and Upgrading Project Construction Progress Exceeds Halfway

China Petroleum News | 2024-11-27 16:04 | Beijing

On November 22, the 80-meter-high, 3,200-ton 1.2 million tons/year ethylene cracking unit cracking gas furnace module was in place.

On November 21, the last spherical tank in the chemical pressure tank area was successfully capped. On November 20, all towers of the 50,000 tons/year hexene-1 unit were hoisted.

On November 14, the installation of four modules of the cracked gasoline hydrogenation unit was completed...

Entering November, the Guangxi Petrochemical Refining and Chemical Integration Transformation and Upgrading Project has been successful, and many installation tasks have been completed according to the nodes. At present, the overall progress of the project has been completed by 62.81%, and the construction progress has exceeded half.

In order to improve the project construction progress and ensure the quality and inherent safety of the project, the Guangxi Petrochemical Refining and Chemical Integration Transformation and Upgrading Project strictly implemented the group company's "six-in-one" construction concept at the beginning of the design, and made the construction safer, more efficient and reliable through factory prefabrication and modular construction. In order to further promote factory prefabrication and modular construction, Guangxi Petrochemical has built "second construction sites" of varying sizes near the project construction site in accordance with local conditions - prefabrication yards, of which there are 8 pipeline prefabrication yards alone. The factory prefabrication rate of the steel structure of this project exceeds 95%, and with the concept of deepening factory prefabrication and modular construction, the operating efficiency has been greatly improved, the workload and safety risks on the construction site have been greatly reduced, and civilized construction on site has been further promoted.

The total investment of Luoyang Petrochemical's million-ton ethylene project is 27.8 billion yuan, mainly to build 13 sets of process production units such as 1 million tons/year ethylene, and implement oil refining adaptability transformation at the same time.

On December 22, 2023, China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation and Henan Shenma Guoxing Industrial Investment Co., Ltd. signed an investment cooperation intention agreement. The two parties will jointly invest to establish a joint venture to jointly build the Luoyang Petrochemical million-ton ethylene project and create a first-class green petrochemical advanced materials industry base in China.

On September 12, 2024, Sinopec Group approved the basic design of Luoyang Petrochemical's million-ton ethylene project, marking that the Luoyang Petrochemical's million-ton ethylene project will enter the full construction stage.

The construction content of Luoyang Petrochemical Million Tons of Ethylene Project includes the construction of:
°a new 1 million tons/year ethylene unit,
°a 600,000 tons/year cracking gasoline hydrogenation unit,
°a 400,000 tons/year aromatics extraction unit,
°a 300,000 tons/year m-LLDPE unit,
°a 350,000 tons/year HDPE unit, and
°a 350,000 tons/year #3  polypropylene unit.

The project is scheduled to be completed and put into operation in December 2025.

After the project is put into production, it can sell about 3 million tons of various chemical products each year, increase the output value by 20 billion yuan, drive more than 160 billion yuan of downstream industrial chain investment, and form an industrial cluster of "hundreds of billions of investment and 10,000 jobs.
