INDIAN OIL CORPORATION
LIMITED
• Indian Oil Corporation Limited is India’s largest
commercial enterprise and it accounts for
nearly half of India's petroleum consumption
today.
• It has the distinction of being the 18th largest
petroleum company in the world.
• Indian Oil owns and operates 10 of India’s 20
refineries with a combined refining capacity of
60.2 MMTPA i.e 1.2 million barrels per day.
BARAUNI REFINERY OVERVIEW
 Barauni refinery was commisioned in the year
1861 which is owned by “IOCL”.
 Barauni refinery is the second public sector
refinery of IOCL.
 This refinery is located near the northern bank
of the river Ganga at Begusarai District town of
Bihar State.
 It operates at 6.00 MMTPA which takes its
crude oil from foreign countries through
Barauni-Haldia pipeline(BHCPL).

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCESS
 DESALTER
 PRE-TOPPING COLUMN
 MAIN FRACTIONATOR FEED HEATER
 MAIN FRACTIONATOR
 STABILISER SECTION
DESALTER
 For separation and removal of water and salt
from crude
Why to desalt the crude feed?
 Crude oil contains salts-mainly NaCL, CaCL2,
MgCL2, sediments and water
 At high temp. salts get hydrolyzed in presence of
water. HCL produced is very corrosive and
generally corrodes column, condensers
 Sediments and water causes plugging of heat
exchanger tubes and thus causes restriction in
crude flow.
PRE-TOPPING COLUMN
 This column is provided so that the load on the
main fractionator column is reduced.
 The purpose of this column is to separate the
gases from the crude.
 Overhead gases, LPG, and unstabilized Naphtha
are the main products obtained from this
column
 Ammonia is injected in the form of aqueous
solution for preventing HCl corrosion in
pretopping column.
MAIN FRACTIONATOR
 The bottom product of pre-topping column are
heated in train of heat exchangers and fired
heater and enters in main fractionator column
at 3600C
 It’s a distillation process.
 The top product is naphtha and gas side draws
are Heavy naphtha, Kerosene , LGO,HGO and
bottom product is RCO
VACUUM COLUMN
 Above 3600C the, heavy hydrocarbons starts cracking,
to avoid cracking and separate the middle distillate and
feed for RFCCU the RCO is heated to 3870C and is
futher distilled in vacuum distillation column.
 In vacuum distillation column , the top cut is light
vacuum gas oil next comes the Heavy Vacuum gas oil
and bottom product is vacuum resid
STABILIZER SECTION

 Gasoline containing LPG is called unstabilized


gasoline, so it is sent to the stabilizer section
for the removal of LPG.
 Top product is LPG, and bottom product is
STABILIZED GASOLINE
PRODUCTS AND THEIR
USES

Sl Products Application
1 LPG Domestic Fuel
2 Naphtha Feed stock for fertilizer plant,power plant etc.
3 Heavy naphtha Blending component for DHDT
4 Kerosene Domestic Fuel
5 LGO and HGO Fuel for diesel engines,railways,vehicles
7 LVGO Blending component for DHDT
8 HVGO FCCU feedstock for valuble component recovery
9 Short Residue Coker feed
Brief description of DHDT
As the crude oil consists of sulphur(1-2%), so the products like diesel also
contain a considerable amount of sulphur in them. And as we know that
sulphur on combustion produces its oxides which are harmful pollutants
and so it is highly desirable to remove the sulphur out of Diesel.
DHDS (Diesel hydro desulphurisation unit) is set up for the following
purposes:
 Objective : To meet the Euro –III/IV diesel quality requirement ( 350/50
ppm ‘S’ and Min. 51 Cetane No.)
 Feed : Straight run diesel / FCC diesel component/ Coker and Visbreaker
diesel components.
 Catalyst : Ni-Mo oxides
Catalytic Reforming Unit (CRU)
Catalytic Reforming is a major conversion process that transforms low
octane Naphtha feed stock to high octane reformate (ON : 98) for use
as a gasoline blending component to make lead free petrol.
A rich hydrogen gas (about 90% purity) and LPG are obtained as valuable
by- products. The reformer can also be run for production of reformate
rich in benzene, toluene, and xylenes (BTX).

1. Capacity:- 0.33 MMTPA


2. Feed :- A combination of straight run naphtha and small quantities of
Hydrocracker heavy naphtha and Vis breaker Naphtha.
3. Product:-There are essentially four primary products from the Catalyticss
Reformer:
• High octane reformate stream,
• Rich hydrogen gas stream,
• Light reformate (BTX)
• LPG stream (with or without C5)
RESID Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit (RFCCU)
 Objective : To convert Heavy Vacuum Gas Oil to valuable
distillates like LPG, Gasoline, Diesel by catalytic cracking in
fluidized bed.
 Feed : VGO/RCO/VR/Hydro Cracker Bottom.
 Catalyst : Silica & Alumina Zeolite Structure
 Products :
1. Off Gas
2. LPG
3. Gasoline
Sulphur Recovery Unit
 Objective : To Reduce the SO2 emission from the Refinery by
recovering Sulphur from Amine Acid and Sour Gases
produced during various Hydrotreating Process.
 Feed : Amine Acid gases and Sour acid gases
 Products :
1. Off Gas
2. Sulphur
 Typical Operating Conditions:
Temperature Range : 195-320 Deg C
Pressure : 0.56 kg/cm2(g)
