Configuration of the Pengerang Refinery Complex (Pengerang RC)
The Pengerang Refinery Complex (Pengerang RC), part of the Pengerang Integrated Complex (PIC) and operated by Pengerang Refining Company Sdn Bhd, is a full-conversion refinery designed for high reliability and flexibility. Below is an overview of its configuration and key process units:
Key Features and Units:
- Crude Processing Capacity:
Up to 300,000 barrels per day (bpd) of various crude oils, making it one of the largest refineries in Southeast Asia.[1][2][3] - Multiple Train Configuration:
Critical process units utilize a multiple train design to maximize reliability and ensure uninterrupted production.[1] - Major Process Units:
- Crude Distillation Unit CDU
- Atmospheric Residue Desulphurisation Unit ARDS
- Residue Fluid Catalytic Cracking RFCC Unit (two trains, Axens technology, 140,000 bpd combined capacity)
- Kerosene Hydrotreater KHT
- Diesel Hydrotreater DHT
- Naphtha Hydrotreater NHT
- Cracked Naphtha Hydrotreater CNHT
- Continuous Catalytic Reformer CCR
- Liquefied Petroleum Gas Treating Unit LTU
- Amine Regeneration Unit ARU
- Sour Water Stripping Unit SWS
- Hydrogen Production Unit HPU
- Refinery Pressure Swing Adsorption RPSA
- Saturated Gas Plant SGP[1][4]
- Product Slate:
The refinery produces Euro 5 gasoline and diesel, jet fuel, and other refined products, as well as feedstock for the adjacent petrochemical complex.[2][3] - Supporting Infrastructure:
- Extensive storage tank farms for crude, products, and olefins.[4]
- Integration with a steam cracker and downstream petrochemical plants.
- Access to shared utilities, including a cogeneration plant and deepwater terminal.[3][5]
Unique Technologies:
- The RFCC unit is the largest in the world using Axens technology and is the first of its kind in Malaysia.[1]
- The naphtha hydro-treating unit also uses Axens technology, a first in the country.[1]
- The KHT unit is uniquely designed to produce both jet fuel and domestic-use kerosene.[1]
Integration:
- The refinery is fully integrated with a steam cracker and petrochemical complex, enabling efficient production of both fuels and petrochemical feedstocks.[1][2][3]
