Patent number: 11976245Abstract: Processes herein may be used to thermally crack various hydrocarbon feeds, and may eliminate the refinery altogether while making the crude to chemicals process very flexible in terms of crude. In embodiments herein, crude is progressively separated into at least light and heavy fractions. Depending on the quality of the light and heavy fractions, these are routed to one of three upgrading operations, including a fixed bed hydroconversion unit, a fluidized catalytic conversion unit, or a residue hydrocracking unit that may utilize an ebullated bed reactor. Products from the upgrading operations may be used as feed to a steam cracker.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2021Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignees: LUMMUS TECHNOLOGY LLC, Saudi Aramco Technologies Company, Chevron Lummus Global LLCInventors: Essam Abdullah Al-Sayed, Ujjal Mukherjee, Kareemuddin Shaik, Pedro Santos, Theodorus Maesen, Mazin Tamimi, Julie Chabot, Ibrahim Abba, Kandasamy Sundaram, Sami Barnawi, Ronald Venner, Raghu Narayan, Meredith Lansdown

Patent number: 11097998Abstract: Provided is a process for hydrating and oligomerizing a hydrocarbon feed comprising mixed olefins, by contacting the feed with water and a catalyst in a fixed bed reactor, wherein the catalyst hydrates mixed olefins to mixed alcohols and oligomerizes mixed olefins into oligomers; introducing the resulting stream into a first separator that separates an organic phase from an aqueous phase; introducing the organic phase into a second separator that separates unreacted olefins from mixed alcohols/oligomers; introducing the aqueous phase into a third separator that separates an alcohol-water azeotrope from water; introducing the second stream into a fourth separator that separates sec-butyl alcohol to produce a third stream comprising mixed butanols and oligomers and an SBA stream; f) mixing the third stream and a first portion of the SBA stream to produce a final product stream; and g) recycling a second portion of the SBA stream to the second separator.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2020Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: Saudi Arabian Oil CompanyInventors: Essa I.

Patent number: 11001770Abstract: According to one embodiment, a heavy oil may be processed by a method that may include upgrading at least a portion of the heavy oil to form an upgraded oil, where the upgrading includes contacting the heavy oil with a hydrodemetalization catalyst, a transition catalyst, a hydrodenitrogenation catalyst, and a hydrocracking catalyst to remove at least a portion of metals, nitrogen, or aromatics content from the heavy oil and form the upgraded oil. The method may further include passing at least a portion of the upgraded oil to a refinery operation.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2018Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: Saudi Arabian Oil CompanyInventors: Kareemuddin Shaik, Lianhui Ding, Mazin Tamimi, Ibrahim Abba, Abdennour Bourane
