Fujian Refining & Petrochemical plans to refine 900,000mt of crude in December, stable from one month earlier, said a refinery source.


The refinery arranges to have one-month maintenance on its old 4-mil-mt/yr crude distillate unit in 2011, but the exact date was unfixed yet, the source revealed.


Fujian Refining & Petrochemical, located in southeastern China's Fujian Province, is jointly invested by Fujian Petrochemical, ExxonMobil and Saudi Aramco at a proportion of 50%:25%:25%. The refinery has an annual topping capacity of 12-mil mt and mainly processes imported crude. It has an 800,000-mt/yr ethylene cracking unit, an 800,000-mt/yr polyethylene unit, a 400,000-mt/yr polypropylene unit and a 700,000-mt/yr aromatics complex.
