Abstract: The present invention addresses to a catalyst, and the method for obtaining the same, for generating hydrogen and/or syngas. More specifically, the present invention describes a catalyst based on nickel, molybdenum and tungsten, for steam reforming processes of natural gas or other hydrocarbon streams (refinery gas, propane, butane, naphtha or any mixture thereof) that presents high resistance to deactivation by coke deposition. According to the present invention, the catalyst has NiMoW as its active phase, in bulk form and/or supported on an alumina oxide and other high surface area oxide supports, and may also contain other promoters. Furthermore, the present invention teaches the production of a catalyst whose active phase of NiMoW has high activity for hydrocarbon steam reforming reaction.

Abstract: The present invention presents a system that allows mixing in a controlled way the streams exported by two-phase or three-phase separators, allowing the management of the phases according to the processing needs of the SPUs. The main idea is that the outlet streams of the subsea separation modules can be routed to different SPUs in order to optimize the processing capacity of the surface plant. It is capable of manipulating in real time process parameters such as GLR (Gas-Liquid Ratio), or GOR (Gas-Oil Ratio) or Water Cut (amount of water in oil) to generate the multiphase streams required by each SPU, using the own autogenous pressure of the process to carry out this adjustment, that is, without the need for pressure raising systems or artificial lifting (pumps, compressors, gas lift, etc.) of the export streams of the system. This is possible by means of a crossflow injection control system between the phases. However, the possibility of using pressure raising systems (pumps, compressors, etc.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a catalyst for steam pre-reforming of hydrocarbons, containing in its formulation nickel and rare earths supported on alumina or magnesium or calcium aluminates, so as to increase the resistance to coke deposition, and the process for preparing said catalyst. Additionally the present invention relates to a process for manufacturing hydrogen or syn gas through steam pre-reforming olefin-containing hydrocarbons in the presence of the catalyst obtained according to the present invention.

Abstract: This invention is aimed at making viable a catalyst and the process for obtaining it that besides having a higher resistance to the deposition of coke on the catalyst surface, does not introduce limitations to the process variables, maintains acceptable levels of activity throughout the steam reforming process and has a lower cost of production. The aforementioned objective is achieved by means of a catalyst formed by an inorganic oxide support, a mixture of Nickel, Lanthanum and Cerium and a promoter element.

Abstract: A selective catalytic cracking process of natural gas liquid fraction to light olefins and other products is described, the process includes placing in contact (within a reaction zone) said liquid fraction of natural gas, rich in C5+ paraffins, with an MFI type zeolitic catalyst in acid form, having a pore size of at least 4 Angstroms, a silica/alumina ratio of between 10 and 2000, and where the processing conditions involve a temperature of between 350° C. and 650° C., space velocity of between 2 and 100h?1 and atmospheric pressure, and afterwards carrying out the catalytic cracking to separate products, to recover a product enriched with light olefins, LPG fractions, and aromatics, and where the production of olefins is favored in conditions of higher space velocities, while the production of LPG fractions and aromatics are favored in conditions of lowered space velocities.
