MODIFICATION OF THE CURRENT UNITS
In the 2024–2028 period, Petronor plans to carry out 12 projects to modify the current units of the Refinery for a total amount of 484.6 million euros.
In a First Phase, 4 projects are included, which use proven technologies and allow increasing the coprocessing capacity of the units by incorporating a higher percentage of bio-based raw materials in fuel production. These projects, some of which are already completed, involve a budget of €4.6 million.
The Second Phase includes 8 projects that involve less mature technologies and high degrees of coprocessing that could reach up to 100% use of bio products and waste in fuel production. The budget for this phase amounts to €480 million.
One of the projects included in this Second Phase is the construction of a New Unit that will allow the production of polymer-grade propylene with a purity of 99.5%. This is a highly demanded product in the market, as it is used as a raw material in polymer production. An investment of €58 million that will strengthen the Refinery’s product diversification and will be operational in 2026.
