Summary
An integrated refinery, where refining and petrochemical units are interconnected, is an approach designed to make refinery operations more sustainable. The conventional model, where refiners generate revenue primarily by processing crude oil to produce transportation fuels, is increasingly under threat from falling fuels demand, particularly in Europe.
The nature and severity of COVID-19 has raised prospects of permanent alteration in the way people go about their daily routines. Global fuels demand may find it difficult to reach to pre-pandemic levels, putting standalone refiners at risk of closure. However, petrochemicals demand is anticipated to remain steady once the global economy recovers from the downturn. This puts integrated refinery model in a better position for long term sustainability.
