Patent number: 11840673Abstract: 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: June 18, 2022Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Assignees: LUMMUS TECHNOLOGY LLC, Saudi Arabian Technologies Company, Chevron Lummus Global LLCInventors: Ujjal Mukherjee, Essam Abdullah Al-Sayed, Pedro Santos, Kareemuddin Shaik, Theodorus Maesen, Mazin Tamimi, Julie Chabot, Ibrahim Abba, Kandasamy Sundaram, Sami Barnawi, Ronald M.

Patent number: 10913908Abstract: Process scheme configurations are disclosed that enable conversion of crude oil feeds with several processing units in an integrated manner into petrochemicals. The designs utilize minimum capital expenditures to prepare suitable feedstocks for the steam cracker complex. The integrated process for converting crude oil to petrochemical products including olefins and aromatics, and fuel products, includes mixed feed steam cracking and fluid catalytic cracking. Feeds to the mixed feed steam cracker include light products and naphtha from hydroprocessing zones within the battery limits, recycle streams from the C3 and C4 olefins recovery steps, and raffinate from a pyrolysis gasoline and FCC naphtha aromatics extraction zone within the battery limits.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2019Date of Patent: February 9, 2021Assignee: SAUDI ARABIAN OIL COMPANYInventors: Mohammed Saeed Al-Ghamdi, Bader BaHammam, Naif Al Osaimi, Sami Barnawi
