Saudi Aramco’s joint venture (JV) with Malaysia’s Petronas, Pengerang Refining and Petrochemical (PRefChem), received on Monday the first crude oil cargo for its refinery located at the Pengerang Integrated Complex (PIC), noted a statement.
The construction of the refinery is nearing completion, and the arrival of crude oil marks its transition into commissioning phase, the statement said, adding that the oil cargo arrived at Pengerang Deepwater Terminal 2 at Pengerang, Johor, Malaysia.
The cargo of 2 million barrels of crude supplied by Petronas and Saudi Aramco will be used for commissioning and testing activities, scheduled to commence in October.
With a refining capacity of 300,000 barrels of crude per day, the refinery upon completion will produce a range of refined petroleum products, including gasoline and diesel, which meet Euro 5 fuel specifications, the statement added.
Additionally, the refinery will provide feedstock for the integrated petrochemicals complex within the PIC, which has the capacity to produce 3.3 million tonnes per annum.
