Brief Description
- The refinery has been closed and has been converted into a renewable fuels plant
- The North Atlantic refinery is a 115,000 barrel per day hydrocracking refinery, optimally configured to process medium sour crude oil (24-34° API, 1-3% sulphur). As a Clean Fuels refinery, 100% of North Atlantic’s gasoline and ultra low sulphur diesel (ULSD) products meet or exceed current and future anticipated environmentally driven specifications.
Refining Units
- Atmospheric Distillation - 115,000 bpd
- Hydrocracker - 38,000 bpd
- Visbreaker
- Diesel Desulphurisation
Terminal Capacity
- Crude Oil:
- Refined Products:
Crude Supply
- The refinery purchases and processes a medium gravity, sour grade of crude oil which is very similar in quality to the oil that Harvest produces in western Canada
- The company can economically source crude oil and other feedstock from numerous locations, including the Middle East, Latin America and Russia
Products Produced
- Able to produce 100% RBOB gasoline and 100% ULSD (current ULSD product meets 2010 Euro 5 standards)
Ongoing Projects
- The refinery which has been idled, is to be converted into a 14,000 bpd renewable refinery
- A second phase may expand that to 35,000 bpd
- Old Projects
- In 2011, the refinery was debottlenecked to increase capacity to 120,000 bpd
- Harvest energy considered a major upgrade and expansion of the refinery
- See Come By Chance Refinery Expansion Project
Other Information
