Heavy oil conversion is of interest to all major oil companies. Converting the heavy feedstock to lower-boiling point products with lower impurities is one of the key technologies that will enable the heavy oil to be utilized economically.

Process Experience





In comparison to the amount of available Conventional Crude Oil, 1.0 trillion barrles, there are a lot more Heavy Crude Oil, 5.6 trillion barrels, available for potential use. Shown above is process diagram of PDVSA HDHPLUS™/SHP Hydrocracking Process. RES has been selected to provide key engineering and process technology services in this process development.
