Abstract

Abstract
The present oil market is defined with sudden changes of crude oil prices, with constant growth of middle distillates demand and continuous decline on fuel oil demand. Product specifications become more severe on our own, not to mention export markets. Under this circumstances, the refining industry finds itself in need of an optimum crude oil slate selection, optimum capacity utilization, and wise market selection with the increased production of more valuable-clean products.
Refinery production optimization, more efficient usage of existing technology and facilities and a more valuable product yield becomes the only way to maximize crude valorisation and improve refinery margins.
