Heavy Oil Upgrading

Low-cost lower carbon footprint heavy oil upgrading. Benefits to industry include:.

  • Unlocking stranded heavy oil
  • Providing feedstocks for the petrochemical industry
  • Cleaner feedstocks for transport fuels emissions reduction
  • Help low Nelson index refiners by providing feedstock they can handle

Low-cost contaminant removing modular upgrader

  • Treats bitumen, waxy crudes, residuals, waste oils, waxy crudes, unconventional crudes

Desulfurization

Low-cost desulfurization and demetalization which reduce emissions in transport fuels.

Benefits include:

  • reduce emissions in transport fuels.
  • Aiding low Nelson index refiners survive by allowing them to clean crude products cost effectively
  • Low pressure and heat desulfurization technologies for ship- based desulfurization at required locations for IMO compliant 2020 LSFO.
  • Land-based desulfurization

Two technology partners for 2021-2022 launch.

Leveraging team’s ship-based experience for mobile solution cheaper than land-based retrofit.
