Shale Gas and Oil

Directional drilling and hydraulic fracturing maketight oil and gas possible.

Recovery factor for the tight oil and gas formation is extremly low, around 10%.

Fields production periods are low in comparisonwith conventional oil and gas reservoirs.

Those facts make tight formation productionmuch more expensive than Middle East fields.

China produces 3874 MT of Coal outof a World production of 8165 MT.

China has huge coal reserves, much of which is used for power generation.

Coal reserves in western China are lowquality and remote from consumptioncentres.

Petrochemical Production Process

Steam Cracking

Produce olefins and some aromatics.Processing feedstocks include ethane, LPG and naphta.Aromatics yields are low when natural gas is used as feedstock.

Fluidized Catalytic Cracking

Produces Propylene as a by productAfter some years of low margins, propylene production might turn it into a key process for refinery petrochemical integration.

Catalytic Reforming

Produces Aromatics as a by product.New catalyst generations focused on xylenes

Refiner has to consider petrochemicals as a high priced alternative option, but for a smallmarket.

Haldor Topsoe Catalytic Forum, 2015 24

Petrochemical Feedstocks

Most Petrochemicals are made from ethane, propaneor naphta, that come from oil refineries and gas processing.

Regions with surplus, low priced ethane are atractivefor steam cracking

Olefins (ethylene, propylene, butadiene) and aromatics(benzene, toluene and xylenes) make up 90% of thepetrochemical production, and are building blocks foralmost all other petrochemicals and polymers

These petrochemicals are commodities and its marketis cost driven and very price sensitive.

Basic Petrochemical Market and Trends

World Petrochemical market value estimationis 1300 US$ billion.

Basic Petrochemical Market size is around423 MMT and 530 US$ billion value.

World Oil Consumption in 2014 4211 MMT

Aromatics (BTX) represents 119 MMT and 130 US$ billion value. Paraxylene market represents 38 MMT

Deloitte, 2014IHS, 2015ICIS, 2015OGJ, 2015

Additional Ethylene capacity expansions (2015-17) represents 15 MT mainly is USA and ME.

On purpose propylene capacity will increase from 17 MMT to 42 MMT by 2020.

Additional world BTX demand (2015-2020) is around 17 MMT, of which 85% of new BTX supply is dominated by Asia (63%) and ME (22%).

Petrochemical Trends by Geographic Region

North America, Shale gas boost petrochemicals, mainlyethylene. Propylene and aromatics a possible issue. Today ethaneaccounts for 55% of the olefin slate and propane 20%. Shale gasis bringing cheap feed stocks and more ethane cracking.

Western Europe, Petrochemicals threatened by lack of cheapfeedstocks. Refinery naphtha is the main cracker feed. Naphthaand condensates provided about 75% of the feed to the Europeanethylene crackers. 12.5% came from ethane, propane and butaneand the balance from gasoil and other sources.

Middle East, Feedstock availability, expansion projects in refiningand petrochemicals. Ethane is the primary cracker feedstock.Some countries has promoted, through incentive pricing, LPGcracking. ME has been leading the petrochemical expansion due tothe rich hydrocarbon availability in the region

Asia, China is the main player. Coal an alternative feedstock.Refinery naphtha is the main cracker feed. This area is driving theglobal petrochemicals demand.

Oil Refining in Europe. Oil Refining Fitness Check

Economic impact on refinery sector of directives analysed in Fitness Check

Has EU legislation contributed to increased refining energy costs?

EU ETS increases costs of purchased electricity

Increased energy consumption due to FQD

Switch to low-sulphur crude oil for refinery energy due to pollution legislation (IED/LCPD/IPPCD)

Demand impacts (RED, ETD, IED) reduce utilization rate, which can negatively affect refineries' energy efficiency

Propane dehydrogenation produces propylene with rather high selectivity.

The economics of dehydrogenation of propane to propylene depends on thedifferential among propane and propylene.

Most of today’s activity in dehydrogenation is centered in the US, Middle East and China

Haldor Topsoe Catalytic Forum, 2015 43

China is using its low value coal reserves to feed Coal to Liquids and Methanol to Olefin (MTO) technologiesto produce ethylene and propylene.

In China metanol consumption for olefins productionramps up to more than 8 MMT/y. China is thebiggest metanol producer in the world with a share of 50%.

At low oil prices economics of MTO are weak.

No economic direct routes for converting methane to propylene.

Methane from Natural Gas must first be converted to methanol (or DME), and then it can be converted to ethylene and propylene.

High capital intensity for such Methane (or Methanol) to Olefins (MTO) processes

Metathesis is the reaction of ethylene with 2-butene to form propylene, the reaction is equilibrium limited.

Feasibility depending on ethylene vs. propylene prices (typical historical value for the P/E price ratio has ranged from 0,7 – 0,8)

Propylene Gap make this unit competitive under some specific scenarios

Grass roots steam crackers, which incorporate metathesis as a method to increase propylene production must over-produceethylene feed to unit, increasing the overall capital expenditure.

Refinery Petrochemical Integration. The Petrochemical FCC

Shift FCC operation to olefin production:

ZSM5 addition convert C7-C10 molecules to olefinic LPG.

Send Light Naphtha to a dedicated FCC riser orto the steam cracker. Depending on the energyvs. yield balance.

High severity FCC, propylene from 4% to 25% yield. Naphtha Aromatics content to increase.

Significant changes to the gas and lighter product recovery sections are necessary

The “Antifragile“ Refinery

Capacity:A minimum size to reach economy of scales

Complexity:Ability to deliver high value light products

Flexibility on feedstocks:Ability to process different slates of crudes thanks to an efficient trading unit and an adapted logistics system

High distillate yield:Adapted to the European market with a strong demand for diesel

Energy efficiency:Integration of the different units with efficient energy use

Petrochemical Integration:Combined optimization of the feedstock streams, sharing units and transfers of products between refining and petrochemicals.

CONCLUSIONS

• Petrochemicals is a cyclical market of high value products. Petrochemicals market size is 10% of the whole oil market.

• Petrochemicals strongly rely on feedstocks cost and availability. Shale gas boom and present oil glut, strongly affect the marketdynamics.

• USA, ME and Asia are the most favored locations forpetrochemicals production due to feedstock costs and productdemand.

• Petrochemicals integration improves refinery´s economics despitethe required investments are significant.The FCC seems to be themost promising unit for petrochemical integration.

• Petrochemical strongly contribute to improve refinery economicperformace on a disparate set of economic environments
