البتروكيماويات الملف الصناعي.

جدول المحتويات.

المقدمة.

البتروكيماويات هي فئة من المواد الكيميائية العضوية المشتقة أساسا من اثنين من المواد الأولية: سوائل الغاز الطبيعي (نغل) التي تم الحصول عليها من محطات معالجة الغاز الطبيعي، وتدفقات مصافي النفط مثل النفتا وزيت الغاز الخفيف.

("إيثان" و "بروبان" و "بيوتان") هي "متصدع" في درجات حرارة عالية لإنتاج اللبنات الأساسية للبتروكيماويات للإثيلين والبروبيلين والبوتيلين والبوتادين. ويؤدي تكسير المواد الأولية القائمة على النفط الخام مثل النفتا أو زيت الغاز إلى تحقيق نسب أعلى من منتجات الإيثيلين البروبيلين والبوتيلين والبوتادين بالإضافة إلى المنتجات العطرية البنزين والتولوين والزيلين جنبا إلى جنب مع المنتجات المشتركة الأخرى.

يتم تفاعل البتروكيماويات الأولية لتشكيل البتروكيماويات الثانوية، والمنتجات الكيميائية الأخرى، أو بلمرة لتشكيل الراتنجات الاصطناعية. هذه بدورها يتم دمجها في مجموعة كبيرة ومتنوعة من المنتجات الصناعية والمستهلكة. وفي كندا، يعتبر الإيثيلين المنتج الأساسي للبتروكيماويات الذي يتم تصنيعه بأكبر كمية من أي من المواد الأولية المستخدمة. يتم إنتاج الإثيلين في ألبرتا، أونتاريو، وكيبيك وتستخدم في مصانع المجاورة لجعل المشتقات بما في ذلك أكسيد الإثيلين، وجلايكول الإثيلين، ثنائي كلوريد الاثيلين، ومونومر كلوريد الفينيل، وبلمرة لالراتنجات الاصطناعية بما في ذلك البولي ايثلين والبولي فينيل كلورايد، البوليستيرين، والمطاط الصناعي. وتظهر مستويات الإنتاج النسبية للبتروكيماويات الرئيسية في الشكل 1.

الشكل 1: الإنتاج النسبي للبتروكيماويات (طن)

المصدر: تقديرات كندا الإحصائية والابتكار والعلوم والتنمية الاقتصادية كندا.

بموجب نظام التصنيف الصناعي لأمريكا الشمالية (نيكس 32511)، يقتصر تعريف البتروكيماويات على "الهيدروكربونات الحلقية (الأليفاتية) والهيدروكربونات العطرية الحلقية". المواد الكيميائية الرئيسية التي تقع ضمن هذا التعريف هي: الإيثان والبوتان والإيثيلين والبروبيلين والبوتيلين والبوتادين والبنزين والتولوين والزيلين وإيثيل بنزين والستايرين. ومع ذلك، يلاحظ أن الكثير من البنزين والتولوين والزيلين المنتج في كندا هي تيارات من عمليات تكرير النفط، وبالتالي يتم التقاط إنتاجها في إطار معيار التصنيف الصناعي الدولي 32411 & # 8212؛ مصافي البترول. وبالمثل، يتم إنتاج معظم الإيثان والبوتان من عمليات استخراج الغاز التي يتم التقاطها أيضا في معيار التصنيف الصناعي الدولي 32411.

هيكل وأداء الصناعة.

وكانت صناعة البتروكيماويات الكندية شحنات بقيمة 6.2 مليار دولار في عام 2010، واستخدمت 1060 شخصا في 16 منشأة صناعية (انظر الجدول المعنون "الإحصاءات الرئيسية" على صفحة "نيكس 32511 للبتروكيماويات"). وبعد انخفاض الناتج الناجم عن الركود، أظهرت الصناعة نموا قويا في عام 2010. وتعود ملكية معظم الشركات الكبيرة العاملة في كندا إلى شركات أمريكية وأوروبية متعددة الجنسيات تقوم بتشغيل عمليات فرعية أو مشتركة في جميع أنحاء العالم.

مقارنة مع متوسط ​​التصنيع العام، ويبين الشكل 2 أن صناعة البتروكيماويات لديها انتاج مستوى عال جدا لكل موظف، مما يعكس كثافة رأس المال لهذه الصناعة.

There are no tariffs on petrochemicals imported into Canada (for example, Canada's Most Favoured Nation tariff rate is 0 percent).

Globally, many leading petrochemical-producing countries participated in the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). Export tariffs from Canada into other countries are highly variable. For countries like Canada that have signed on to the Chemicals Tariff Harmonization Agreement (CTHA), all petrochemical tariffs will drop to 0 percent once the Agreement is fully implemented.

Relationship to Oil and Natural Gas.

Raw material and utilities constitute almost two thirds of petrochemical manufacturing costs. Low feedstock prices are, therefore, critical to the success of Canadian operations. Not only are oil and gas used as fuels, but they are also the source for most of the feedstocks used to produce petrochemicals.

Whereas oil has long been a globally-traded commodity and prices tend to be more or less equal in all regions, natural gas is a regional commodity, with wide variations in prices observed from one part of the world to another. Gas has only been transported from source to markets in situations where construction of a pipeline was economic. Liquified natural gas (LNG) opens up another option for moving gas from so-called stranded pools to markets, and thus moves natural gas closer to becoming a global commodity. At present less than 10 percent of global natural gas is moved as LNG and this ratio will need to become much higher before we start to see significant equalization of prices on a global scale. In North America, natural gas is currently abundant and relatively cheap. As a result, whenever possible North American petrochemical producers are using feedstocks obtained from natural gas. In most other parts of the world, where gas is not so abundant, oil is the dominant petrochemical feedstock.

تقنية.

Access to technology is typically not an issue for this industry in Canada. For the most part, both the process and product technologies utilized are up-to-date, either as a result of in-house development or through licensing agreements with parent companies or other technology providers. Some of this technology has been developed in Canada, but the trend in this industry has been to centralize R&D activities close to the head office, and with the exception of NOVA Chemicals, all of the major research centres are outside Canada.

Against this general trend, Canada has had some limited successes in attracting niche R&D activity, driven by the fact that performing research in Canada is very cost effective. There is a good supply of qualified scientists engineers, and salary costs for this highly-skilled labour are lower than in other industrialized countries. Canada also offers more favourable tax treatment to R&D expenditures than other G7 countries. It is estimated that the cost of performing R&D in Canada is 18 percent lower than the comparable cost in the United States or Japan, and 40 percent lower compared to Germany.

Environmental Issues.

Canada's petrochemical industry, along with other chemical and related sectors, must deal with a variety of environmental issues being addressed by federal, provincial and municipal regulators, including:

control of odours release of toxic chemicals volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions generation of greenhouse gases emissions of contributors to acid rain (for example, NOx , SOx ) ozone depleting substances testing required prior to introduction of new substances land contamination storage and handling mishaps.

Canada–U. S. مقارنة.

The petrochemicals industries in Canada and the U. S. are structurally quite similar. In the U. S., the major petrochemical producing region is along the Gulf Coast in Texas and Louisiana. Figure 6 compares shipments per employee in the two countries on a constant Canadian dollar basis.

A portion of the Canadian industry is composed of subsidiary operations originally built largely to satisfy Canadian domestic demand, and thus were scaled to this market. With North American product rationalization resulting from the FTA , many of these multinational plants now serve North American markets, but in most cases these are still constrained from producing commodity products by virtue of their lack of size, and tend instead to focus on niche markets.

Prospects for the Future.

Canadian facilities compete with producers based in the United States, notably with plants located along the U. S. Gulf Coast. Facilities in Ontario and Quebec are better situated than those on the Gulf Coast to supply the large customer base in the northeastern and central United States and Canada. Commodities manufactured in Alberta are largely shipped to central and western U. S. markets or offshore.

Global chemical companies are making most of their major new investments in the Middle East and Asia Pacific. New capacity has been drawn to the Middle East by low-cost feedstocks, and this production is destined for export markets in Asia and Europe. The attraction in Asia Pacific is proximity to booming markets. Despite a large increase in petrochemical capacity, Asia Pacific will remain a large net importer for the foreseeable future.

Most of the recent growth in the Canadian industry has occurred in Alberta, based almost exclusively on natural gas feedstocks. There are two main petrochemical complexes in the province. One at Fort Saskatchewan, near Edmonton, is an integrated petrochemical cluster based heavily on ethylene and derivative products that offers extensive pipeline inter-connections, large underground salt cavern storage capacity for hydrocarbons (raw materials and products), and nearby petroleum refineries for raw material acquisition and co-product exchange. The other complex at Joffre, near Red Deer, is an integrated cluster based exclusively on ethylene and derivatives. Joffre is connected to the Alberta Ethane Gathering System for feedstock supply, and is connected by pipeline to Fort Saskatchewan allowing for movement of product streams between the two centres. In Alberta today there is insufficient volumes of feedstock to support any major new investment. New developments are needed to change this scenario. Possible options are the import of feedstocks from neighbouring provinces or states, utilizing feedstocks from oil sands, and the development of northern gas.

In Ontario, Sarnia has an integrated petrochemical complex that provides petrochemical producers with large underground salt storage caverns, nearby petroleum refineries, extensive pipeline infrastructure, a tanker terminal for offshore shipments, and ready access to large U. S. and Canadian customers via excellent transportation networks. Most of the recent investment in Ontario has been to make existing manufacturing units more efficient through "debottlenecking". Efforts are currently underway to secure additional natural gas liquid feedstocks from the Marcellus shale gas formation. If successful, this could reinvigorate the petrochemical cluster in the Sarnia area.

In Quebec, the petrochemical industry is centred around Montréal and uses solely oil-based feedstocks. Crude oil arrives in Montréal by tanker or via pipeline from Portland, Maine. Although on a smaller scale than Sarnia, Montréal is also an integrated petrochemical complex that offers petroleum refineries, a tanker terminal for ocean shipments, and access to the markets of eastern and central Canada and the United States.

Major Firms.

Association.

The principal association representing petrochemical companies in Canada is the Chemistry Industry Association of Canada. The head office is located in Ottawa, with regional offices in Vancouver, Edmonton, Toronto and Montréal.

Refers to the time frame that prices are effective for certain suppliers, from 6:00 p. m to 6:00 p. m the following day. This time for price changes differs from the standard 12:00 a. m. to 12:00 a. m. time change that most suppliers had used until the beginning of 2002. Prices are available to OPIS subscribers once the change is confirmed and shortly after the price change becomes effective, based upon local terminal times.

Abandonment Rule (Order490)

Alcohol and Alcohol Blends.

Family name of a group of organic chemical compounds composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Examples are methanol, ethanol and tertiary butyl alcohol. Alcohol and alcohol blends are added to gasoline in order to make it burn cleaner and boost octane.

Alkylate (Alkylation)

A refining operation that takes low value derivatives from the cat cracking and other processes and unites them in the presence of an acid catalyst to produce a very high octane, low vapor pressure gasoline blending component.

Alkylation Unit.

An oil refining unit in which propylene or butylene reacts with iso-butylene to yield a high octane gasoline blending component called alkylate. Alkylate helps improve the environmental qualities of gasoline – low vapor pressure, zero sulfur content, zero olefin content, zero benzene and a high octane number.

Allocation Method.

The method of limiting the volume of products that can be purchased from a supplier for a variety of reasons such as natural disasters, loss of delivery infrastructure or similar supply disruption.

Allowance for Funds Used During Construction (AFUDC)

A component of construction costs representing the net cost of borrowed funds and a reasonable rate on other funds used during the period of construction. AFUDC is capitalized until the project is placed in operation by concurrent credits to the income statement and charges to utility plant, based generally on the amount expended to date on the particular project. Effective Jan. 1, 1977, FERC amended the Uniform System of Accounts establishing formulas for maximum allowable AFUDC rates.

Allowed Rate of Return.

The rate of return that a regulatory commission allows on a rate base in establishing just and reasonable rates for a utility. It is usually based on the composite cost of financing rate base from debt, preferred stock, and common equity.

Alternate Delivery Procedures (ADP)

A provision of many energy futures contracts that allows for both sides of the futures market to make deliveries under terms and conditions which differ markedly from those described by the strict delivery rules. ADP's always occur following the expiration of contracts for the spot month, after deliveries have been matched.

American Gas Association (AGA)

An industry trade group representing natural gas utility companies.

American National Standards Institute (ANSI)

OPIS prices labeled as "any current month" represent transactions for product that buyer and seller agree will be delivered at any time during the current calendar month.

Any Delivery (Any)

Spot market terminology for deliveries that can be made at any time during the month at the seller's discretion. Spot market prices will often be tied to the delivery stipulations termed prompt, outer month, or any month.

API Gravity.

Industry scale expressing the gravity or density of liquid petroleum products. The measuring scale is calibrated in terms of degrees API; it may be calculated in terms of the following formula: Degrees API = 141.5/ sp. gr.60°F/60°F -131.5. The higher the API gravity, the lighter the compound. Light crudes generally exceed 38 degrees API and heavy crudes are commonly labeled as all crudes with an API gravity of 22 degrees or below. Intermediate crudes fall in the range of 22 degrees to 38 degrees API gravity. Light crudes yield more gasoline.

API Inventory Figures.

A widely monitored body of data in the petroleum industry. This report compiles changes in domestic petroleum production, imports, refining, capacity and product movements into and out of primary storage. Traders use this information to access supply and demand on a weekto - week basis. These figures are usually released Tuesday afternoons. The release of these reports is often a catalyst for movement on the futures market.

The buying, selling, and exchange of petroleum products or crude oil in different markets with the express design to take advantage of location, product, and timing differentials. Traders looking to move U. S. Gulf Coast No. 2 oil to Rotterdam watch the arbitrage between Gulf Coast prices and the IPE, for example.

Hydrocarbons characterized by their uniform carbon ring structure and their often pleasant aroma. Commercial petroleum aromatics are benzene, toluene, and xylene. These three are often referred to by the acronym BTX. These chemicals are used as high octane components in gasoline. Aromatics have been judged to be undesirable in some finished motor fuels with various state and federal regulations geared toward reducing their levels. CARB diesel fuel in the state of California mandates a low aromatics composition. As Billed Rates - A policy requiring pipelines to flow through gas costs to their customers in the same manner as they are billed to the pipeline.

A dark-brown-to-black cement-like material containing bitumens as the predominant constituent obtained by petroleum processing; used primarily for road construction. It includes crude asphalt as well as the following finished products: cements, fluxes, the asphalt content of emulsions (exclusive of water), and petroleum distillates blended with asphalt to make cutback asphalts. Note: The conversion factor for asphalt is 5.5 barrels per short ton.

ASTM (American Society of Testing Materials)

Grade and quality specifications for petroleum products are determined by ASTM test methods.

At the Market Order.

Specifies buying or selling a futures/options contract as quickly as possible, at the best possible price. Gives the broker the discretion to use his expertise to execute the contract, regardless of where the market moves, between when the order is given and execution is made. At the Money Option - Refers to the state which may briefly exist when the options strike price and the futures price intersect. A 60cts/gal December call or put is "at the money" when the futures price is at 60cts/gal.

Atmospheric Crude Oil Distillation.

The refining process of separating crude oil components at atmospheric pressure by heating to temperatures of about 600 degrees Fahrenheit to 750 degrees Fahrenheit (depending on the nature of the crude oil and desired products) and subsequent condensing of the fractions by cooling.

Automated Meter Reading (AMR)

"Real-time" monitoring of natural gas quantities and characteristics as it passes through a specific location. This is usually accomplished through the use of radio or telephone technologies.

Aviation Gasoline (Finished)

A complex mixture of relatively volatile hydrocarbons with or without small quantities of additives, blended to form a fuel suitable for use in aviation reciprocating engines. Fuel specifications are provided in ASTM Specification D 910 and Military Specification MIL-G-5572. Note: Data on blending components are not counted in data on finished aviation gasoline. Generally a high octane gasoline.

Aviation Gasoline Blending Components.

Naphthas which will be used for blending or compounding into finished aviation gasoline (e. g., straightrun gasoline, alkylate, reformate, benzene, toluene, and xylenes). Excludes oxygenates (alcohols, ethers), butanes, and pentanes. Oxygenates are reported as other hydrocarbons, hydrogen, and oxygenates.

A transaction that results in the transportation of gas in a direction opposite of the aggregate physical flow of gas in the pipeline. This is typically achieved when the transporting pipeline redelivers gas at a point(s) upstream from the point(s) of receipt. A backhaul condition will exist as long as the aggregate backhaul transactions total less than the aggregate forward haul transactions. A backhaul transaction can result in a delivery by non-delivery or cut back (reduction) of physical flow at a delivery point.

الميل إلى التراجع.

Term that describes a market which features higher prices for prompt or near-term delivery than for forward or outer month(s) material. This scenario offers no incentive to store barrels.

The act of making receipts and deliveries of gas into an interstate gas pipeline or a local distribution company's system equal with withdrawals from that pipeline or system. Balancing may be accomplished daily, monthly or seasonally, with fees or penalties generally assessed for excessive imbalances. The purpose of balancing requirements is to prevent a shipper from tying up storage and line pack with excess deliveries of transportation gas, or from depleting storage and line pack by taking more gas off the system than it delivers, both of which disrupt other sales and transportation services.

Balancing Agreement.

A contractual agreement between two or more legal entities to account for differences between chart measured quantities and the total confirmed nominated quantities at a point. They have been used to keep track of over/under production relative to entitlements between producers or over/under deliveries relative to confirmed nominations between operators of wells, pipelines and LDCs.

Balancing Tolerance.

The amount of imbalance allowed by a utility which is not subject to a penalty charge. The imbalance tolerance is usually stated in a range expressed in percentage terms.

Term used as the standard measurement of volume for crude oil and large quantities of refined products in the petroleum industry. A unit of volume equal to 42 U. S. gallons - often abbreviated as bbl.

Barrels Per Calendar Day.

The amount of input that a distillation facility can process under usual operating conditions. The amount is expressed in terms of capacity during a 24-hour period and reduces the maximum processing capability of all units at the facility under continuous operation (see barrels per stream day) to account for the following limitations that may delay, interrupt, or slow down production: the capability of downstream facilities to absorb the output of crude oil processing facilities of a given refinery. No reduction in barrels per calendar day calculations are made when a planned distribution of intermediate streams through other downstream facilities is part of a refinery's normal operation; the types and grades of inputs to be processed; the types and grades of products expected to be manufactured; the environmental constraints associated with refinery operations; the reduction of capacity for scheduled downtime due to such conditions as routine inspection, maintenance, repairs, and turnaround; and the reduction of capacity for unscheduled downtime due to such conditions as mechanical problems, repairs, and slowdowns.

Barrels Per Stream Day.

The maximum number of barrels of input that a distillation facility can process within a 24-hour period when running at full capacity under optimal crude and product slate conditions with no allowance for downtime.

Gas in a storage reservoir which provides the pressure necessary for designed withdrawals of working gas. Also called cushion gas.

Market requirements that remain fairly constant over a period of time that usually are not temperature sensitive.

The difference between the price of the actual commodity (e. g. heating oil) and the price of the futures contract. Basis can be calculated by subtracting the futures price from the cash price. For example, if N. Y. Harbor physical heating oil is 60cts/gal and the futures price is 61cts/gal, the basis is 1ct/ gal. Also called basis differential.

Basis Risk.

Price exposure associated with variation in the relationship between a physical or cash price and the appropriate NYMEX reference. These risks may be associated with location, product specifications, and time variations.

A shipment of one type of product through a pipeline.

Bear Market (Bearish)

A market in which prices are declining.

Benchmark Crude.

A widely accepted grade of crude oil used as a standard in trading. Other grades would be traded at a price differential according to the quality differences. Examples would be WTI, Brent, Dubai and Arab Light.

Benzene (C6H6)

An aromatic hydrocarbon present in small proportion in some crude oils and made commercially from petroleum by the catalytic reforming of naphthenes in petroleum naphtha. Also made from coal in the manufacture of coke. Used as a solvent, in manufacturing detergents, synthetic fibers, and petrochemicals and as a component of high-octane gasoline.

عرض التسعير وطلب.

Prices offered to buy and sell, respectively, on spot market deals. An interested party can sell at the bid and buy at the asked price. Spot prices are not reported as a straight number, but rather, in terms of bid and ask. OPIS editors derive an appropriate price from those to report a value that's representative of that market. Bid is what the buyer is willing to pay and ask is what the seller wants for the product.

Any fuel derived by a variety of processes from an organic source that is renewable, i. e. capable of being replenished naturally.

Blanket Certificate.

Certificate issued by FERC which authorizes open access transportation by interstate pipeline companies on behalf of others and certain services by local distribution companies and Hinshaw companies under blanket certificates (of public convenience and necessity) subject to certain conditions and reporting requirements.

Blending Plant.

A facility which has no refining capability but is either capable of producing finished motor gasoline through mechanical blending or blends oxygenates with motor gasoline.

A closed vessel in which a liquid is heated and/or vaporized. Often classified as to steam or hot water, low pressure or high pressure, capable of burning one fuel or a number of fuels.

Boiler Efficiency.

The ratio of the useful heat output to the heat input multiplied by 100 and expressed as a percent.

Boiler Rating.

The rating of a steam boiler expressed as the total heat transferred by the heating surfaces in Btu per hour. Sometimes also expressed in horsepower or pounds of steam per hour.

Bonded Petroleum Imports.

Petroleum imported and entered into Customs bonded storage. These imports are not included in the import statistics until they are: (1) withdrawn from storage free of duty for use as fuel for vessels and aircraft engaged in international trade; or (2) withdrawn from storage with duty paid for domestic use. Bonded fuel is typically exempt from import duties or fees.

The heaviest components of petroleum product left in the refining process after the light ends have been removed. These products include asphalt, coke and residuals.

Distinction of product that is sold under a trademark owned by a refiner (or reseller in some instances) and usually affiliated with integrated or major oil firms. Branded product often carries a premium to unbranded product, since it can be sold under a branded flag. Branded gasoline can be sold as unbranded product, but the reverse is not true. Branded markers are most often proprietary additive packages to improve the quality and performance of a product.

Branded Average.

An average of all branded suppliers, denoted with a (b) in the OPIS rack display. Calculated on a gross or net price basis.

A rapid and sharp price decline.

Blend of crude oil from a critical group of North Sea fields, Brent is the standard contract for ICE crude oil futures trading, and the most commonly referenced crude in Europe. It's described as the European counterpart of WTI, and its morning performance is often a harbinger for the NYMEX opening. London's IPE benchmark crude for international oil physical and futures trading.

British Thermal Unit (BTU)

The measure used to gauge the heating quality of various fuels. It is the amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit from 58.5 to 59.5 degrees under standard pressure of 30 inches of mercury at or near its point of maximum density. General conversion factors are: 1 Btu = 252 calories,1,055 joules, or 0.293 watt hours.

Anyone who executes futures or options contracts in exchange for a commission fee. The term can apply to account executives who take phone orders and pass the execution on to the floor; the term also applies to floor brokers on the NYMEX who actually execute the orders in the pit.

The heating value contained in a cubic foot of natural gas measured and calculated free of moisture content. Contractually, dry may be defined as less than or equal to 7 pounds of water per Mcf.

The residual product left after a reforming process. The term also has been more generally used in reference to any low octane product left over after any secondary refining process. Preferable to natural gasoline in ethanol/gasoline blends because of the low RVP (4 to 8).

RBOB (reformulated blendstock for oxygenate blending)

Specially produced reformulated gasoline blendstock intended for blending with oxygenates downstream of the refinery where it was produced. Includes RBOB used to meet requirements of the Federal reformulated gasoline program and other blendstock intended for blending with oxygenates to produce finished gasoline that meets or exceeds emissions performance requirements of Federal reformulated gasoline (e. g. California RBOB and Arizona RBOB). Excludes conventional gasoline blendstocks for oxygenate blending (CBOB).

An installation that manufactures finished petroleum products from crude oil, unfinished oils, natural gas liquids, other hydrocarbons and oxygenates.

Refinery Input, Crude Oil.

Total crude oil (domestic plus foreign) input to crude oil distillation units and other refinery processing units (cokers, etc.).

Refinery Input, Total.

The raw materials and intermediate materials processed at refineries to produce finished petroleum products. They include crude oil, products of natural gas processing plants, unfinished oils, other hydrocarbons and oxygenates, motor gasoline and aviation gasoline blending components and finished petroleum products.

Refinery Production.

Petroleum products produced at a refinery or blending plant. Published production of these products equals refinery production minus refinery input. Negative production will occur when the amount of a product produced during the month is less than the amount of that same product that is reprocessed (input) or reclassified to become another product during the same month. Refinery production of unfinished oils, and motor and aviation gasoline blending components appear on a net basis under refinery input.

Refinery Yield.

Refinery yield (expressed as a percentage) represents the percent of finished product produced from input of crude oil and net input of unfinished oils. It is calculated by dividing the sum of crude oil and net unfinished input into the individual net production of finished products. Before calculating the yield for finished motor gasoline, the input of natural gas liquids, other hydrocarbons and oxygenates, and net input of motor gasoline blending components must be subtracted from the net production of finished motor gasoline. Before calculating the yield for finished aviation gasoline, input of aviation gasoline blending components must be subtracted from the net production of finished aviation gasoline.

Refinery-Grade Butane (C4H10)

Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP)

The volatility or tendency of a petroleum product to evaporate. The lower the number, the more stable the product. RVP is used to measure pressure in terms of pounds per square inch (psi). In terms of gasoline, RVP is used as an ozone control mechanism.

Renewable Diesel (R99)

Often called “green diesel” or “second generation diesel,” refers to petrodiesel-like fuels derived from biological sources that are chemically not esters and thus distinct from biodiesel. Renewable diesel is chemically the same as petrodiesel, but it is made of recently living biomass. The term ‘renewable diesel’ means fuel derived from biomass (as defined in section 45K(c)(3)) using a thermal depolymerization process which meets - (A) the registration requirements for fuels and fuel additives established by the Environmental Protection Agency under section 211 of the Clean Air Act (42 U. S.C. 7545), and (B) the requirements of the American Society of Testing and Materials D975 or D396. The IRS’s ruling refers to any biomass process using heat as “thermal depolymerization” and the processed fuel is eligible for the $1-per-gallon blender’s tax credit. Renewable diesel blends follow the same nomenclature as biodiesel. Renewable diesel in its pure form is designated R100 while a blend comprised of 20% renewable diesel and 80% petrodiesel is called R20. Because renewable diesel is chemically the same as petrodiesel, it can be mixed with petrodiesel in any proportion but users may need to add an additive to address lubricity issue associated with compounds with no oxygen.

Renewable Identification Number (RIN)

A serial number assigned to a batch of biofuel for the purpose of tracking its production, use, and trading as required by the EPA's renewable fuels standard (RFS). The EPA is authorized to set annual quotas dictating what percentage of the total amount of motor fuels consumed in the U. S. must be represented by biofuel blended into fossil fuels. Companies that refine, import or blend fossil fuels are obligated to meet certain individual RFS quotas based on the volume of fuel they introduce into the market. To ensure compliance, obligated parties are periodically required to demonstrate they have met their RFS quota by submitting a certain amount of RINs to the EPA. Because each of these RINs represent an amount of biofuel that has been blended into fossil fuels, the RINs submitted to the EPA by obligated parties are a quantitative representation of the amount of biofuel that has been blended into the fossil fuels used in America.

Residual Fuel Oil.

A general classification for the heavier oils, known as No. 5 and No. 6 fuel oils, that remain after the distillate fuel oils and lighter hydrocarbons are distilled away in refinery operations.

No. 5, a residual fuel oil of medium viscosity, is also known as Navy Special and is defined in Military Specification MIL-F-859E, including Amendment 2 (NATO Symbol F-770). It is used in steam-powered vessels in government service and inshore power plants. No. 6 fuel oil includes Bunker C fuel oil and is used for the production of electric power, space heating, vessel bunkering, and various industrial purposes.
