Crude Supply
- The refinery primarily processes various crude oils and condensates from the North Sea, which are brought in by ship.
- Condensate comes chiefly from the Sleipner area via Statoil’s gas processing plant at Kårstø north of Stavanger.
Products Produced
- petrol, jet fuel, diesel oil, propane, heating oil and fuel oil.
- Kalundborg delivers petrol and diesel oil with less than 50 ppm (0.005%) of sulphur.
Projects
- The refinery began to produce agricultural fertiliser in 2000, utilising a completely new facility designed in cooperation with Denmark’s Haldor Topsøe Ltd.
- Built at a cost of DKK 400 million, the Synflex facility came on stream in the summer of 2002 with an annual capacity of about one million tonnes of sulphur-free diesel oil (defined as 10 parts per million of sulphur, or 0.001%).
Other Information
- Countries around the Baltic represent the principal market for products from the refinery.
- The fertiliser plant converts sulphur and nitrogen from the desulphurisation process for oil products into liquid ammonium thiosulphate (ATS). The result has been a substantial reduction in emissions of sulphur and nitrogen oxides from the refinery.
History
- 1960 DanskVedolA/S built the refinery (20 kbbl/d)
- 1963 DanskESSO A/S takes over the refinery, the capacity is expanded to 70 kbbl/d in 1967
- 1981 The Visbreakeris installed (fuel oil conversion)
- 1982 The Powerformercapacity is expanded (reduction in lead)
- 1985 The Jetfuelunit is installed
- 1986 Statoil takes over the refinery
- 1986 Improvement of the waste water treatment plant
- 1989 VPS/TC project for increased fuel oil conversion
- 1990 Sulphur Plant is installed (clausunit) Mild hydrocracker(fuel oil conversion) Power former expansion
- 1995 Condensate refinery is inaugurated
- 1996 Low benzene gasoline is introduced
- 1997 Agreement about technical support for the SIRI oilfield
- 1998 - Soaker Visbreaker is in operation (heavy fuel to diesel)
