中國石化新聞網訊 據路透社8月4日倫敦報道,荷蘭皇家殼牌公司時下正在考慮擴建其旗下的一家德國煉油廠產能來生產旨在滿足即將到來的船舶燃料含硫量上限的石油產品。 殼牌公司在這家德國煉油廠的網站上表示,在過去幾天里,德國萊茵蘭煉油廠的代表與當地政府官員和環保組織人士舉行了會晤,向他們介紹了投資萊茵蘭集團麾下14萬桶/天的韋塞林格煉油廠的初步計劃。 殼牌公司在一份電子郵件聲明中對路透社說,殼牌公司正在考慮“對萊茵蘭煉油廠的殘油加工裝置進行現代化改造并增強其在當地的脫硫廠?!?殼牌公司拒絕透露這個項目的更多細節,稱這個項目目前處于“規劃過程的早期階段”。 聯合國麾下的航運機構國際海事組織(IMO)在去年年底制定了全球監管規定,規定從2020年開始將船舶燃料的硫含硫量上限控制在0.5%,而目前的上限是3.5%。 李峻 編譯自 路透社 原文如下: Shell mulls German refinery upgrade to meet 2020 IMO sulfur rules Royal Dutch Shell is considering expanding the capacity of one of its German refineries to make oil products that meet an upcoming cap on the sulfur content of fuels used in shipping. In the past few days, Rheinland refinery representatives met local officials and environmental groups to present preliminary plans for an investment at the plant’s 140,000-bpd Wesseling site, Shell said on the refinery’s website. Shell is considering “a modernization of the residue processing unit at Rheinland refinery and to enhance the desulphurization plant there,” Shell told Reuters in an emailed statement. Shell declined to give further details on the project, saying it was in the “very early phase of the planning process.” The International Maritime Organization, the United Nations’ shipping agency, set global regulations in late 2016 to cap sulfur content in shipping fuel at 0.5%, versus the current 3.5%, from 2020.
