據(jù)天然氣加工網(wǎng)站7月28日消息 科威特國(guó)家通訊社報(bào)道稱，科威特綜合石油工業(yè)公司（KIPIC）已開始運(yùn)營(yíng)這條天然氣管道，該天然氣管道將為其拖延已久的祖爾（Al-Zour）煉油廠供氣。

祖爾原計(jì)劃于十多年前建成，但一再推遲，它將成為科威特最大的綜合煉油廠和石油化工廠。

祖爾的生產(chǎn)能力估計(jì)為61.5萬桶/天，使科威特的整體煉油能力提高到150萬桶/天以上。

科威特石油子公司KIPIC去年委托美國(guó)跨國(guó)霍尼韋爾國(guó)際公司的一家子公司為祖爾提供技術(shù)和生產(chǎn)系統(tǒng)。

KIPIC成立的目的是管理科威特城南部祖爾綜合體的煉油廠、石化產(chǎn)品和液化天然氣進(jìn)口業(yè)務(wù)。

Kuwait's KIPIC starts operation of gas line feeding Al-Zour

Kuwait Integrated Petroleum Industries Co (KIPIC) has begun operating the gas line that will feed its long-delayed Al-Zour refinery, state news agency KUNA said.

Originally planned more than a decade ago but repeatedly delayed, Al-Zour will be the largest integrated refinery and petrochemicals plant in Kuwait.

Al-Zour’s production capacity is estimated at 615,000 barrels per day, increasing Kuwait’s overall refining capacity to over 1.5 million barrels a day.

KIPIC, a subsidiary of the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation, appointed a unit of U.S. multinational Honeywell International last year to provide technology and production systems for Al-Zour.

KIPIC was set up to manage refinery, petrochemicals and LNG import operations at the Al-Zour complex south of Kuwait City.
