CURRENTLY CHALLENGES FACES PETROLEUM SECTOR
Underutilization of refineries, gas plants and petrochemical plants
Heavy dependence on imported products to meet local demand
Overall perceived high energy consumption, outdated infrastructure and inefficient operations
across the sector
Remote areas with low population are not served by NG due to high cost of logistics (pipelines)
Absence of focus on continuous improvement in energy efficiency and investments in new
technology
PROGRAM REVOLVES AROUND TWO MAIN TOPICS
Improve Energy Efficiency For The Sector .
Optimizing Downstream & Enhancing Performance and revenues.A
B
A. OPTIMIZE DOWNSTREAM & ENHANCING THE PERFORMANCE
Maximize refineries utilization rate to Minimize imports of refined and petrochemical products
Optimize crude oil and gas transmission and distribution.
success cases of boosting production (up to 50% in certain petrochemical plants).
Promote
Expand CNG usage for remote areas to serve domestic “residential” use.
Increase awareness for the importance and value added of petrochemical industry.
Enhance added value through chain integration between refineries, gas plants and petrochemical industry.
Duration: 1st quarter of 2018
Overall Duration: By the 4th quarter of 2019
B. IMPROVE ENERGY EFFICIENCY FOR THE SECTOR
Reduce energy consumption and energy cost.
Streamlineoperations across downstream sector to reduce operating costs.
new technologies in existing plants to reduce cost and improve yield
Introduce
DevelopEnergy Efficiency Legal & Administrative Framework
QUICK WINS
Oil & Refinery
1. Production of burning fuel to replace fuel oil to some industrial consumers.
2. Optimize crude oil distribution and maximize refineries productivity.
3. Utilizing unused refining capacity in EGPC`s Refineries.4. Development of EGPC refineries.
Gas Sector
Petrochemical
1. Recovering products (Propane, LPG, Condensate) from Alam El-Shwawish area (around 12 MMSCFD) .
2. Expand Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) usage for remote areas (Light industries - residential and hotel complexes).
1. Integration between facilities by exchanging utilities in general, specifically nitrogen.
2. Operate the line of high impact polystyrene in EstyrenicsCompany.
3. Dry granulation technology (Compacting technology) in fertilizer industry Production of NPK Fertilizers.
QUICK WINS
Develop energy efficiency Departments in all companies.
Increaseawareness/training for the importance of improving energy efficiency.
No/Low cost housekeeping energy efficiency measures.
Implement
Establish energy database & monitoring systems.
