Applying extensive greenfield design experience and know-how to review and analyse refinery design
Providing all refinery process know-how and concepts, refinery performance guarantee, basic engineering and commissioning support.
Advisian (previously WorleyParsons) acted in a leadership role for an initial refinery expansion study as part of an integrated team.
In mid-2015 an already slow global titanium dioxide (TiO2) market showed signs of weakening further. An increase in global production capacity, combined with slack global demand, resulted in falling sales and lower prices.
Through Advisian’s alumina know-how, combined with our project delivery expertise, Ma’aden was able to deliver on a project that was previously unable to achieve sanction.
The Shell ‘Prelude’ project is embarking on a revolutionary step-change in liquefied natural gas (LNG) processing; a 488m long floating facility that will process, liquefy, store and transfer LNG at sea, directly above the natural gas field. Could the same floating concept be applied to an alumina refinery moored at a shipping berth close to a bauxite supply?
Refineries must continually improve to remain competitive. Making sustainable cost position efficiency improvements are a challenge... Beware the underlying trend of the market cycle!
The previous article, "When do you invest in alumina refinery cost reduction?" discussed “when” to invest in cost position improvement; this article deals with the “how.”
Better information = better decisions. A good full plant model improves quality and timeliness of investigations into potential benefits of process improvement scenarios and analysis of performance variations. So why doesn't everyone have one?
