January 22, 2024 - Vacuum Gas Oil (VGO) is a type of intermediate feedstock derived from crude oil refining. It is produced during the vacuum distillation process, which occurs after the initial atmospheric distillation of crude oil. During this stage, heavier oils left over from the initial distillation are ...

June 2, 2024 - Vacuum Gas Oil (VGO) is a versatile product derived from the refining process, finding extensive applications in various industries. One of the key uses of VGO is as a feedstock in catalytic cracking units to produce lighter fuels such as gasoline and diesel.

September 1, 2023 - Vacuum gas oil, heavy oils left over from petroleum distillation that can be further refined in a catalytic cracking unit ... A series of very large bomber aircraft produced by Gothaer Waggonfabrik; see Zeppelin-Staaken V.G.O.I

The Honeywell UOP FCC, Unicracking™ and VGO Unionfining™ processes are the keys to cost-effectively upgrading VGO into valuable products. Vacuum gas oil (VGO) is a key feedstock for fluid catalytic crackers.

Vacuum gas oil is also referred to as cat feed because it is utilized as a feedstock to create gasoil, gasoline, and other by-products. On the basis of the product, the vacuum gas oil market can be segmented into Light Vacuum Gas Oil (LVGO) and Heavy Vacuum Gas Oil (HVGO).

A complex combination of hydrocarbons produced by the vacuum distillation of the residuum from atmospheric distillation of crude oil. It consists of hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly in the range of C20 through C50 and boiling in the range of approximately 350°C to 600°C (662°F ...

Vacuum Gas Oil (VGO) is one of the two outputs of the vacuum distillation tower (along with vacuum resid). VGO is the lighter material of the two. The primary use of VGO is as feed to cracking units such as the FCC or the hydrocracker. These units upgrade VGO into more valuable products, namely ...

By means of this process, the residual from the atmospheric distillation can be reduced to 37–43% with a viscosity of 6000 cSt at 50°C. At the same time, a vacuum heavy oil with an approximate viscosity of 20–200 cSt at 50°C is obtained. The residual fuel from vacuum distillation is extremely ...

October 15, 2024 - After being taken over by the original Standard Oil Company and then becoming independent again, in 1931 Vacuum Oil merged with the Standard Oil Company of New York to form Socony-Vacuum, later renamed to Mobil and eventually merging with Standard Oil of New Jersey (itself renamed to Exxon) ...

Historically, fuel oils were based on residua from the atmospheric distillation column and were known as straight-run fuels. However, the increasing demand for transportation fuels such as gasoline, kerosene, and diesel fuel has led to an increased value for the atmospheric residue as a feedstock for vacuum ...

Tracing its company roots to 1932, Apex Oil Company, Inc. provides wholesale distribution, storage and transportation of petroleum products including asphalt, kerosene, fuel oil, diesel fuel, heavy oil, gasoline and marine bunkers.

August 22, 2014 - This allows distillation at ... the heavy residual oil tends to solidify. Vacuum distillation breaks out light and heavy gas oil fractions leaving vacuum residuum that can be further processed by a coker unit or sold as fuel oil (see Yo-Ho-Ho and a Cargo of Bunkers for more ...

Marine Diesel Oil (MDO), Intermediate Fuel Oil (IFO) and heavy Fuel Oil (HFO)

Petroleum heavy vacuum gas oil (HVGO) containing 10 wt.% of petroleum wax was hydrocracked at 390–430 °C and under the pressure of 18 MPa over a Ni W/amorphous silica-alumina catalyst in a continuous-flow fixed-bed reactor. The hydrocracking of a reference feed (neat HVGO) was carried out ...

Fundamental design considerations influencing diesel and vacuum gas oil (VGO) recovery when revamping existing or designing grassroots crude units. By increasing vacuum column diesel recovery, crude throughputs via major conversion units may also be increased

Similar to LCO, the LVGO and HVGO fractions from vacuum distillation tend to be highly aromatic. Catalytic hydrocracking combines hydrogenation and cracking to handle feedstocks that are heavier than those that can be processed by FCC, because of excessive coke deposition on the catalyst in the absence of hydrogen. Middle distillates (e.g., kerosene and diesel fuel...

The uses of vacuum in the oil industry are illustrated by the following: the use of vacuum to assist recovery of crude oil and gas from the oil well i…

Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals Limited (MRPL) is Category 1 schedule ‘A’ Miniratna, Central Public Sector Enterprise (CPSE) under the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas. MRPL is located in a beautiful hilly terrain, north of Mangaluru city, in Dakshina Kannada District of Karnataka ...
