Overview
Refiners are facing significant challenges including a historic reduction in fuels demand and the early impact of IMO 2020 regulations. However, long-term forecasts show a growth in fuels demand through 2050, an increase in refining petrochemical integration, and a drive to reduce carbon intensity. Enhancing BoB operations through KBR’s Solvent De-Asphalting technology, ROSE®, is a cost-effective and versatile way to address these challenges.
