Information

• New residue conversion projects are highly capital intensive • Revamping of existing process units combined with new units can deliver much better returns • An existing hydrocracker or hydrotreater almost always has flexibility to be revamped into an integrated solution with SDA and residue gasification offering higher chance of success
Shell Catalysts & TechnologiesShell Catalysts & Technologies' Virtual BoothShell Catalysts & Technologies exists to provide Shell and non-Shell businesses with the tools, technologies and insights that are needed to navigate the energy transition. Check out our ERTC Virtual speakers: Andy Gosse’s keynote examines how COVID-19 could affect the global energy system. Bart Suijkerbuijk’s keynote explores technology options and presents a potential road map for your biofuels investments. Simon Cackett’s session provides insights into how revamp projects can capture above-average rates of return. We are… …pushing boundaries in the energy transition space. For decades, we have been developing game-changing technological innovations to solve seemingly insurmountable challenges. Now we have, or are developing, a wide range of differentiated solutions that offer attractive decarbonisation opportunities, including biofuels, carbon capture and blue hydrogen technologies.  …an owner–operator–licensor. What sets us apart is the knowledge we have gained from Shell’s corporate heritage as the operator of refineries and petrochemical plants around the world. It also gives us a unique perspective on how refiners can remain competitive as, for example, demand for transport fuel declines. …a leader in the molecular engineering of hydrocarbons. Our world-class catalyst and research and development expertise has enabled us to establish an enviable track record for developing leading-edge zeolites and catalysts, advanced solvents and pioneering processes, and provides a strong foundation for our future technology development. Highly complex business and technological challenges lie ahead for the sector. But, with ingenuity, technical prowess and – crucially – collaboration, we can overcome them: Together, we can shape the energy landscape.
