The modernization will include installation of new distillation units, catalytic crackers, and emissions control systems.

Key Features

  • Current capacity of 120,000 barrels per day, expanding to 180,000
  • Deep-water port access for efficient crude delivery
  • Pipeline connections to major distribution networks
  • Upgrade to produce higher-value refined products
  • State-of-the-art emissions control technology

Implementation Timeline

24-36 months for complete modernization

Scalability Options

  • Phased implementation allowing for staged investment
  • Additional petrochemical production capabilities
  • Renewable fuel integration options

Regulatory Considerations

Environmental impact assessment in progress. All necessary permits for modernization being secured. Project designed to exceed EU emissions standards.

Market Potential

Strong regional demand for refined products with limited local competition. Modernization will allow production of higher-margin products and reduce operating costs, significantly improving profitability.
