The interview with the Huizhou Refinery, which had a processing capacity of 12 million tons a year ago, is the largest refinery in China's single series, and is also the first refinery in China that focuses on the processing of oceanic high-acid heavy crude oil. In this modern refinery, one of the reporter's deepest impressions is that it has reached a standard of 0.5 person/million tons of oil, which is the most advanced level in the world. The operation of this large-scale refinery requires only 600 people. . Domestic refineries generally have a scale of more than 10,000 people, and some advanced refineries require thousands of people.
Dong Xiaoli, general manager of Huizhou refinery, said that the Huizhou refinery is designed according to the most optimized plan at the time of planning and design. With the annual output of one million tons of ethylene in the chemical plant, the sea shell plate is separated by only one wall, and better returns can be obtained through refining and chemical integration. Due to better control of costs, Huizhou refinery production has already achieved profitability in 2009.
The experience of this refinery is worth learning from. Petroleum and chemical industry is an important pillar industry of China's national economy. At present, the total economic output is second only to the United States. The output of synthetic ammonia, chemical fertilizers, soda ash, caustic soda, calcium carbide, sulfuric acid, synthetic fibers, dyes, and tires ranks first in the world. Refined oil and ethylene The output of synthetic rubber and others ranks second in the world. However, in the rapid development, the long-term accumulation of structural problems has become increasingly prominent. Due to historical reasons, the industrial layout is relatively decentralized, and some small companies waste more resources in the production process, and it is imperative to accelerate structural adjustment.
The petrochemical industry is an industry with significant economies of scale. If the expansion of production capacity is not based on the economic scale, the development of the industry will be difficult to maintain and it will be difficult to occupy a place in the international competition. In the petrochemical industry, refining and ethylene represent the development level of a country's petrochemical industry. Its demand for economies of scale is very high. It is necessary to constantly adjust the industry layout, increase the scale of the equipment, and reduce operating costs to increase the level of comprehensive utilization and industry competitiveness. .
Nowadays, the proportion of heavy crude oils, sulfur-containing and high-acid crude oils in crude oil is increasing in the world, and the deterioration of crude oil is getting worse. To meet this challenge, petrochemical companies must attach great importance to the efficient use of oil resources. Through the integration of petrochemical companies, not only can we reduce investment and production costs, increase the efficiency of the use of oil resources, but also have great flexibility in production and can adapt to changing market demands. To achieve this goal and to make intensive use of petroleum resources, companies must also have a certain scale.
To this end, it is necessary to increase the independent innovation capability of petrochemicals and improve the supporting role of science and technology in the development of the industry. Research and develop advanced oil processing technology routes to increase the utilization rate of crude oil and make good use of limited oil resources.
It is necessary to establish an exit mechanism for production capacity and adopt more market-oriented methods to eliminate backward production capacity, encourage, support, and guide enterprises to implement mergers and reorganizations, especially cross-regional mergers and reorganizations, and promote enterprises to become stronger and larger, and to increase industrial concentration. To achieve effective allocation of resources. In addition, we must constantly optimize the product structure of the petrochemical industry and create innovative systems for new product development through innovation.
The "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" is an important strategic opportunity period for China's petrochemical industry, and it is also a crucial period for the transition from a petrochemical big country to a petrochemical powerhouse. In this transitional period, the petrochemical industry needs to follow the trend to further accelerate structural adjustment.
