The Duqm Re nery is

proposed to be constructed
at the Special Economic
Zone of Duqm (SEZD),
approximately 600km
south of Muscat, Oman. It
will have a crude oil
processing capacity of
230,000 barrels a day.

The project is being developed

by Duqm Re nery & Petrochemical Industries Company, a 50:50 joint venture (JV)
between state-owned Oman Oil Company (OOC) and the International Petroleum
Investment Company (IPIC).

Site preparation works for the project were initiated

"Main construction

online in the third
quarter of 2020." Duqm Re nery make-up
and construction details
Approximately 900ha (2,000 acres) of land has been earmarked for the construction of
the re nery within the SEZD. The project will primarily involve the construction of a
crude distillation / vacuum distillation unit, sour water strippers, amine units, and
offsite and utility systems.
The process units will comprise a hydrocracker unit (HCU), a hydrogen production unit
(HPU), a diesel hydrotreating unit (DHT), a saturated gas plant (SGP), an LPG treatment
unit (LTU), a kerosene treatment unit (KTU), a sulphur recovery unit (SRU), and a delayed
coking unit (DCU).

The early site preparation works for the project will involve the excavation and
compaction of approximately 13 million cubic metres of soil. The same work package also
includes the construction of a ood protection ditch, temporary drainage ditches and
culverts.

Studies are also being performed to integrate a petrochemical complex at the same site.
The adjacent facility is expected to incorporate a mixed feedstock cracker, a
polypropylene plant, an aromatics facility and a styrene plant.

Technology licensors for the Omani re nery

Chevron Lumus Global (CLG) is the technology licensor for the HCU, HPU, DHT and SGP
process units, while the other technology licensors include UOP for the LTU and KTU,
Flour USA for the SRU, and Foster Wheeler Houston for the DCU.
Gas supply and product off-take agreements
The natural gas for the re nery will be sourced from the Saih Nihayda gas plant in
central Oman and conveyed to the new Duqm gas supply station (GSS) via a new 221km-
long and 36in-diameter pipeline.

The crude oil and products from the project will be traded to Oman Trading
International (OTI) and CEPSA.

The project will be served by a new liquid jetty, which is designed to accommodate
150,000DWT vessels. The facility will be operated and managed by Duqm Petroleum
Terminal Company (DPTC), a JV of OOC (90%) and the Port of Duqm Company (10%).

Key players involved

The front-end engineering design (FEED) study for the project was performed by Foster
Wheeler Energy, while the integrated control system for the project during the FEED
stage was handled by Yokogawa.
The market and feasibility studies were performed by KBC, the environmental impact
assessment (EIA) study was performed by HMR, the geo-technical investigation works
were performed by Swissboring and the site topographical survey was conducted by
Nusail Engineering Consultancy.

The project management consultant (PMC) for the project is Technip E&P, the nancial
adviser is Crédit Agricole, and the legal adviser is Allen & Overy.

MOG has been assigned to execute the gas supply elements of the project, whereas
