South Pars Refinery Raising Output

The sixth natural gas processing plant in South Pars Gas Complex will increase production this year (started in March), director of the refinery said.
“Projects include installing new air compressors in sulfur recovery units and using new catalysts to increase efficiency of sulfur production, increasing quality and quantity of propane and butane products, using nanotechnology to improve gas sweetening process, and increasing the storage capacity of gas condensate and LPG tankers,” ISNA quoted Ahmad Valipour as saying.
To raise output, the refinery will also receive more gas feedstock through subsea pipelines from Phase 16, he noted, adding that the feedstock will rise by 42%, which will result boost production by the same percentage.
