Brief Description
- The Sweeny Refinery, located in Old Ocean, Texas, 65 miles southwest of Houston, processes mainly heavy, high-sulfur crude oil, but also processes light, low-sulfur crude oil. The refinery facilities include fluid catalytic cracking, delayed coking, alkylation, a continuous regeneration reformer and hydrodesulfurization units.
Refining Units
- Atmospheric Distillation
- Vacuum Distillation Unit
- Delayed Coker
- Fluidised Catalytic Cracker
- Alkylation Unit
- CCR Reformer
- Hydrodesulphurisation
Terminal Capacity
- It operates nearby terminals and storage facilities in Freeport, Jones Creek and on the San Bernard River, along with pipelines that connect these facilities to the refinery.
Crude Supply
- The refinery receives domestic and foreign crude oil, primarily through wholly- and jointly-owned terminals on the Gulf Coast, including a deepwater terminal at Freeport, Texas.
- Following completion of the KMCC Lateral the refinery increased its usage of Eagle Ford Crude
- The refinery can receive Permian and Eagle Ford crude oil from the Gray Oak Crude Oil Pipeline
Products Produced
- It produces a high percentage of transportation fuels, such as gasoline, diesel fuel and jet fuel. Other products include petrochemical feedstocks, home heating oil and coke.
- The refinery operates nearby terminals and storage facilities in Freeport, Jones Creek and on the San Bernard River, along with pipelines that connect these facilities to the refinery.
- Refined products are distributed throughout the Midwest and southeastern United States by pipeline, barge and railcar.
