What you will learn
Comprehend the basic differences between exploration, refining and petrochemicals
Understand the basics of the various refining processes
Learn what crude oils are made of and understand the chemical properties of their hydrocarbon components like paraffins, naphthenes, aromatics...
Learn how the refining processes work & interact with each other (distillation isomerization alkylation catalytic reforming hydrotreater sulfur plant...)
Understand how the main petroleum products are made (LPG, gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, heating oil, heavy fuel, asphalts, lubricants...)
Appreciate that aromatics are important to the petrochemical industry even though refineries are trying to minimize these in gasoline due to their toxicity
Appreciate that olefinic and aromatic petrochemical precursors are specialty chemicals produced by the refining processes
