2 Agenda Market Overview Why Integrate?
Maximum Fuels to Maximum Petrochemicals Here is the agenda for this session. It will include a brief overview of the petrochemical market. It will then highlight some of the advantages of integration. Next, we will step through an example showing how different technology selections can be used to take a maximum fuels refinery to a maximum petrochemical facility. Finally, it will highlight some technologies used for integration and the importance of proper technology selection. UOP

3 Petrochemical Demand Soars into the Future
Paraxylene Demand Million MTA Million MTA 60 100% Increase! 40 20 10 years 1990 2000 2010 2020 90 million MTA of incremental light olefins needed over next 10 years Annual demand growth of 6.7% u The emerging middle class in many parts of the world has driven a significant growth in the petrochemical market of the past 20 years and this trend is expected to continue in the foreseeable future. For light olefins, the key point is that propylene demand is increasing faster than ethylene demand, creating a need for On Purpose propylene generation. On the aromatics side, paraxylene demand growth is expected to double over the next 10 years. These market drivers are the reason there is so much interest in maximizing petrochemical production, and an excellent way of doing this is through proper technology integration Fiber (fabric, yarn, cord) Film (packaging, media, electrical components) Resin (bottles, packaging, containers) Additional Need for “On Purpose” Propylene Demand of pX Projected to Double Over the Next 10 Years!

4 Feedstock Selection Depends on Regional Feedstock Availability
Ethylene Cracker Feedstock is Variable by Region 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% Percent 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% However while global petrochemical demand is increasing, the feedstocks we use to derive petrochemicals change from region to region. Here we show a chart from CMAI giving the type of ethylene cracker feedstocks in various regeions around the world. It is clear that places like north america and the middle east, lower ethane costs are drivers while in europoe and asia the trend is towards using petrochemical naphthas. So feedstock selection depends on regional feedstock price and availability North America South America Europe CIS & Baltic States Middle East/ Africa Northeast Asia Southeast Asia Ethane Propane n-Butane Naphtha Gasoil Other Source: CMAI 2011 World Ethylene Cost Study Feedstock Selection Depends on Regional Feedstock Availability UOP

5 Ethylene Cash Cost Curve Cumulative Ethylene Capacity (million tons)
Ethylene Production Costs are Increasing Ethylene Cash Cost Curve 1,050 Middle East North America NE Asia SE Asia Western Europe Source: CMAI 2009 Curve: February 10, 2010 Asia Light Olefins Market Advisory Service (Graphical Analysis) 2004 Curve: 2005 World Light Olefins Analysis Ethylene CCOP $/MT Refinery Integration 850 2009 650 450 Feedstock Price Increasing 2004 250 Well what does that do to the cost of production of petrochemicals? Here is another CMAI chart that shows the Ethylene cost of production compared to the cumulative global capacity. The dotted line is 2004 and the solid line is If we now overlay the different regions on top of here we see that for places like the middle east, there is a cost advantage due to the lower cost of ethylene whereas in the rest of the world the costs are higher. But note also the CHANGE from 2004 to 2009 you see that in every area of the world the costs are increasing, even in the middle east due to the fact that feedstock costs are increasing. However one way to fight this trend and drive a facility down on to the left is through proper refinery-petrochemical integration. Position on cost curve is very important to success given the large capital investment costs 50 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 Cumulative Ethylene Capacity (million tons) Offset Higher Feedstock Costs through Proper Refinery Integration UOP

6 Trend Towards More Integrated Complexes is Increasing
Major Oil Companies Recognize Value of Integration Percent of Ethylene Capacity Integrated with a Refinery by Same Company in Europe 90% 74% 39% 24% The major oil companies recongize this trend. This chart shows the percentage of etheylene capactity integrated with a refinery by the same company in Europe. Successful companies like Total and Exxon recognize and promote their leadership in integration as a way to upgrade their refinery intermediate streams and secure reliable feedstock supply for their petrochemical plants. And at UOP we regognize that this trend is increasing over time. BP Shell Total ExxonMobil Source: Morgan Stanley Trend Towards More Integrated Complexes is Increasing UOP

7 Why Integrate? Increase product valuation
Secure reliable feedstock supply at reduced cost Other Advantages: Reduced Shipping Costs Reduced Tankage Costs Common Offsites / Utilities Common Maintenance / Admin Upgrade of byproduct streams Refinery Processes Petrochemical Processes Let’s talk now about the some of the advantages of integration. For refiners the primary benefit is on increasing the value of their products. For Petrochemical producers, it’s about securing a feedstock at the lowest cost. And there are some other advantages including reduced shipping and tankage costs, common offsites and utilities and upgrading of byproduct streams. In general, the focus is on leveraging synergies between these technologies to maximize product values, while also lowering capital and operating costs.

8 What is Refinery-Petrochemical Integration?
Fuel Gas Refinery Processes $800/Te Light Naphtha/ LPG $880/Te Heavy Naphtha $870/Te Reformate $900/Te Distillate So why do we want to integrate refineries with petrochemical facilities? Well before we answer that, lets discuss what integration really means because it can mean different things to different customers. Integration can mean simply adding a BTX complex to extract high value aromatics out of the gasoline pool, it could mean running higher severity on the FCC unit to recover incremental propylene yields or routing refinery intermediate streams to a steam cracker or it can mean doing all of these things. But ultimately the goal for anyone looking to integrate is to maximize the value of their complex through balanced vertical integration. Now maybe it is obvious that a refiner wants to maximize the value of his products by upgrading them in a petrochemical facility and the petrochemical producer has a need to secure reliable feedstock at lower cost, and sure we all know that there are advantages of sharing common storage, utilities and reducing transportation costs between facilities. However lets look at this a slightly different way. A standalone refinery that produce petrochemical feedstocks are selling a commodity. There is little opportunity to extract incremental value out of those products. As long as they meet certain specifications they are sold for a fixed value. Likewise the petrochemical facility is at the mercy of whatever product qualities and even quantities the refinery is willing to send them. However, the integrated refinery-petrochemical complex holds all the cards. We can now custom design our refining technologies specifically to produce high quality petrochemcial feedstocks. This allows the intergrated complex to gain a competative advantage over the standalone complex and take full advantage of new technology developments that UOP has to offer. UOP

In many cases, the refinery will only be getting commodity prices for these intermediates. The refiner will continue to maximize distillate. Refinery Optimization UOP

Now the incentive will optimizing the quantity and quality of the intermediate streams in order to maximize the highest value petrochemical products. It is therefore important to select the right technology solutions to accomplish this. OR Proper technology selection is therefore important and would provide a competitive advantage over stand alone facilities.

11 Maximum Fuels to Maximum Petrochemicals Case Study
400 KBPD FCC Based Complex Case 1: Traditional Fuels Refinery Case 2: Fuels Refinery with BTX Complex Case 3: Maximum Petrochemical Refinery Case 4: Integrated Refinery – Petrochemical Complex Case 5: Integrated Refinery – Petrochemical Complex No Fuels Now lets walk through a simple example of how different technology selections can take a facility from a traditional maximum fuels refinery all the way to a maximum petrochemical complex with no fuel production. First we start with the fuels facility, and then we add a BTX recovery section. Next we move to maximizing petrochemicals from a standalone refinery then we move to an integrated refinery – petrochemical complex and finally end up with an integrated complex with no fuels production. This example is for illustrative purposes only to show relative product yields and one economic example as we convert an increasing percentage of our fuels to petrochemicals. We are not saying that any one of this is preferred for every case. Highlight how UOP technology can be applied across the entire spectrum and help drive towards an optimum point for a particular set of objectives. UOP

Using a standard price set we calculate a net operating margin which takes product values and subtracs feedstock, variable and fixed costs. We also calculate a margin less capital value which takes the net margin and subtracts out the capital investment payments plus interest over a fixed time period Low Severity FCC Unit (Fuels) Case 1 Case 2 Case 3 Case 4 Case 5 UOP

Note however that when capital costs are considered, we reach an optimum point in case 4 before the margin starts to decline. This is because we are spending an enormous amount of capital to add 2 large hydrocracker trains to take relatively high value distillate and convert it all to petrochemicals. This simple example highlights the need to find the optimal balance point between product values and capital expenditures, and our goal at UOP is to help you identify this point to maximize the value of your facility. Notes from Russian Slides So this demonstrates that having the right technology is important and at UOP we firmly believe we have the best technology but we recognize that just having the best technology is not enough and to really take advantage of an integrated complex you need to know how to apply the technology to each individual case.

In this case we have a customer integrated a crude upgrading facility to make petrochemical naptha for a steam cracker and an aromatics complex. In this example we want to ask what conversion technology should we choose to generate the highest value for the complex? Should we use a vacuume unit with a delayed coker and UOP’s hydrocracker technology? Heavy Oils Delayed Coking Unit Coke UOP

Because of the resid defulrization unit the FCC complex consumes hydrogen and thus requires more natural however if you look at the overall coke yields, the FCC complex makes about 800 tons/day less coke and therefore more liquid product which offset the higher operating and capital costs of the RCD/RFCC configuration. RCD/RFCC Complex Provides Higher Liquid Yields Offsetting Higher Capital and Operating Expense UOP

Traditionally in a fuels driven refinery we try and avoid producing incremental LPG and light ends since they are difficult to blend into the fuels pool. Therefore we limit the severity of our hydrotreating units. But in the integrated complex with a steam cracker we can afford to increase the hydrotreating severity, and the incremental naphtha LPG is fed to the steam cracker.

This chart shows 4 commercial operating units FCC propylene production on the y axis and Feed contaminent metals on the x axis which are a proxy for the hydrogen content in the FCC feed. We see in this example that the hydrotreated resid units make more propylene per barrell than the straight run resid units, and so as we increase hydrotreating severity, we not only generate additional SC feedstock, but we increase the propylene production from the FCC as well. 20 10 20 30 40 FCC Feed Ni + V (wppm) Increased RCD Severity Increases Olefin Yields, Generates Additional SC Feedstock UOP
