INA completes $539MM Fijeka Refinery modernization in Croatia


14.02.2011 + + + Croatia-based INA-Industrija Nafte has completed the first phase of Rijeka Refinery modernization, putting it into operation on February 12, 2011. 

The first phase of Rijeka Refinery modernization included three facilities within Hydrocracking complex and other supporting facilities and installations. The facilities are: Mild hydrocracking (MHC/HDS), Hydrogen generation unit and Desulphurization plant (Claus). Total investment into first phase of Rijeka Refinery modernization is close to US $539 million (EUR 400 million). 

The center facility of the complex is Hydrocracking/Hydrodesuphurization. Through the hydro cracking of heavy hydrocarbons we will get lighter products, and by the hydrodesulphurization of these lighter products - EURO V fuels. Hydrogen generation unit is designed for supplying of Hydrocracking plant with high purity hydrogen. Besides hydrogen, the plant produces also high pressure steam that is used for production of electricity. Desulphurization plant in the first phase processes the amine acid gas and sour gas with high level of ammonia. 

This plant is able to isolate at least 99.8% of the sulphur present in the total input. 

INA Group is one of the largest vertically integrated oil and gas corporate groups in South Eastern Europe. It is held at 51% by the Government of Croatia and 25% plus one share by MOL.
