Hydrocracker Reactors Delivered to TANECO
OREANDA-NEWS. August 17, 2010. The two reactors for combined hydrocracker were delivered to the site of Oil Refining and Petrochemical Complex.
The bulk equipment was manufactured for TANECO by Objedinenniye mashinostroitelniye zavody (Uralmash-Izhora Group) selected on the basis of tender. The contract of reactors’ delivery was concluded in August 2007.
The reactors R0101 and R0102 are absolutely identical ones and are unique structures with length of
Engineering and manufacturing of the reactors was performed fully in accordance with the requirements of ASME and Russian regulations. The licensor of the project is Chevron Lummus Global (USA) – one of the largest energy companies in the world. The design and process documentation, developed by the specialists of Izhorskiye zavody, was approved by both Chevron Lummus Global and Fluor (USA), project management contractor, for Oil Refining and Petrochemical Complex in Nizhnekamsk. OJSC TANECO and Fluor specialists constantly monitored the equipment manufacture for the purpose of quality provision at each stage of production.
It should be noted that during reactors’ manufacturing, the new technologies were developed of smelting of large ingots from chrome-molybdenum-vanadium steels, of hammering of bulky shell rings, of basic and post-weld heat treatment, execution of welds with thickness up to
The reactors R0101 and R0102 required also non-standard transportation. It was possible to delivery them to Nizhnekamsk only by water. The barge with two bulky reactors on-board covered the distance of
The special loading dock section with a floating botaport was built for the purpose of receipt of reactors and other bulky and large-size equipment of TANECO. ZAO KSU Gidrospetsstroy was the general designer of the project, ООО Neftegasengineering was the general contractor for the construction and installation works. The construction started in January 2008, finished in May 2009 and was performed fully in accordance with the project requirements. Operating length of the dock section is
The botaport, manufactured at Zelenodolsky shipbuilding yard named after А.M.
For the purpose of unloading of the reactors, the water level in the dock section was increased up to nearly
The transporters, by means of which the delivery of the reactors to the site was performed, looked like a transporter train consisting of 16 6-axis modules of gross loading capacity of 1700 tons. The operation was performed with the assistance of the specialists of the Dutch company MAMMOET. The distance between the berth and the construction site is
The special platform with increased load-bearing ability, capable to bear the load of
As explained by Mr. Sergei Lebedev, Head of OJSC TANECO Hydrocracker Complex, the reactors R0101 and R0102 are the most important constituents of the combined hydrocracker. On the whole, it includes the following process sections: hydrogen production (3100) with capacity 135 000 nм3/hour; hydrogen production with capacity 30 000 nм3/hour; hydrocracker with capacity 2,9 mln.tons/year; base oils production with capacity of 250 thousand tons/year; treatment and concentration of hydrogen with capacity of 10 000 nм3/hour.
The unit will allow to increase the level of treatment at Oil Refining and Petrochemical Complex, to produce the additional quantity of kerosene - 455 tousand tons/year from CDU-VDU, diesel fuel – 1,3 mln.tons/year. All the products are of European quality.
The delivery of the reactors to the site became the part of work concerning implementation of the following stage of Oil Refining and Petrochemical Complex project.
