石油设备网讯 据路透社5月13日迪拜报道,阿拉伯联合酋长国的布鲁克石油天然气投资公司(BPGIC)周一表示,计划在富查伊拉建造一座炼油厂,生产符合限制船舶燃料硫含量的新国际法律的船用燃料。
该公司在一份声明中表示,计划中的日产量为25万桶的炼油厂一期工程将于2020年第一季度完工。
国际海事组织(IMO)的新规定将要求船舶从2020年开始使用硫含量低于0.5%的燃料。目前的航运燃料污染更严重,含硫量更高。

UAE's Brooge Petroleum says to build oil refinery in Fujairah
The United Arab Emirates' Brooge Petroleum and Gas Investment Co (BPGIC) said on Monday that it plans to set up an oil refinery in Fujairah to produce bunker fuel that complies with new international laws capping sulfur content in shipping fuels.
The first phase of the planned 250,000 barrel per day (bpd) refinery will be completed in the first quarter of 2020, the company said in a statement.
New regulations from the International Maritime Organization (IMO) will require ships to use fuels with a sulfur content below 0.5% beginning in 2020. Current shipping fuel is much dirtier, with a higher sulfur content.
