Chapter 415 Low scary oil

It is these two ultra-large refineries that far exceed other domestic refineries in terms of production scale and equipment advancedness, which have established Pingchuan Petroleum Group Company's position in the domestic industry and also made Pingchuan Petroleum Group Company's profit margins much higher.

Three barrels of oil. Coupled with Pingchuan Petroleum Group's overseas assets, Pingchuan Petroleum Group has enough confidence when facing three barrels of oil.

The newly constructed Qinxi Second Refinery in Qinxi Province can process 20 million tons of crude oil per year. This will basically replace the second phase of the China-Russia oil transportation pipeline that will be opened after New Year's Day next year.

The extra 20 million tons of oil transported by the project were swallowed up. The remaining private companies, including Hua Petrochemical and China National Petroleum Corporation, could only take a share of the remaining 10 million tons of crude oil. Regarding this result, Hua Hai Oil also

Well, of course Sinopec and Sinopec are very dissatisfied. The Russian crude oil that was supposed to go to them has turned out to be only a few million tons of it every year.

But dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, and they have nothing to do with Pingchuan Petroleum Group Company other than normal business competition methods. Pingchuan Petroleum Group Company is not one of those private oil refining companies that they can bully. Behind it is the Fang family that has become a climate.

Its shareholders include large companies such as Gulf Second Bank, Kuok Shipping Group Company and Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company. It controls many companies including Chevron Petroleum Group Company, Singapore Petroleum Company and Russia's Yukosky Oil Company.

The equity of overseas oil companies has good relations with political figures in Russia and the Middle East. If you want to use those small means to touch it, you must consider that you will face a tough counterattack from Pingchuan Petroleum Group Company!

"I seem to have heard Mr. Fang mention it before. Qinxi No. 2 Refinery has adopted new technology. If all the equipment is running, the standards of the refined oil produced can basically meet the production standards of American refined oil.

Ma Yongfu said, "Master Fang also said that even the lowest standards can be close to the production standards of Japanese refined oil. The subsequent shutdown and renovation of Qinxi No. 1 Refinery is also to improve the quality of refined oil.

.”

"Then why does there seem to be no movement at the Donghai Refinery?" Su Aijun asked.

"The Donghai Refinery was designed for overseas exports when it was first built. Although it has been expanded several times since then, exports only account for a small part now. However, it seems that this aspect was already taken into consideration when it was first built."

Shi Wensheng interjected, "I heard that Mingyuan once complained that the superiors seemed to require the Donghai Refinery's refined oil products to lower their standards when entering the domestic market."

"Can I ask, what is the difference between the refined oil production standards of Japan and the American refined oil production standards? Is there a European refined oil production standard?" Li Dongxing interjected.

Zhao Xu'an scratched his head and said, "I've heard about it a little bit. But we'd better find a professional to come and explain it." Soon, Lu Zhijian was recruited.

"What we call refined oil in our country often refers to gasoline. Of course, diesel also has quality standards. However, compared with European and American countries, in our country, diesel vehicles have a lower number and share of the total number of vehicles.

The proportions are quite small. Currently, the more advanced gasoline quality standards in the world are divided into four major standard systems: the United States, Europe, Japan, and the "World Fuel Specifications". Among them, the European Union gasoline standards and the "World Fuel Specifications" are the most influential, and the United States gasoline standards are the most influential.

The standards are more relaxed than the EU gasoline standards in some indicators. Compared with the American gasoline standards, the Japanese gasoline standards are more relaxed in some indicators." Lu Zhijian was secretly glad that he had relatively good knowledge of this area.

.

"In other words, when it comes to gasoline standards, it can basically be said that the EU is stricter than the United States, and the United States is stricter than Japan. So how does it compare with us? How big is the gap?" Su Aijun asked.

"The gap is huge!" Lu Zhijian said helplessly, "During the combustion process of gasoline, automobile exhaust will be produced that seriously pollutes the air. Therefore, countries around the world have become more and more strict on the sulfur content of gasoline. Therefore, our country promulgated and implemented the "

"Automobile Gasoline" new quality standard, the standard stipulates that the sulfur content per gram of gasoline has been reduced from the original 800 micrograms of sulfur to 500 micrograms. A microgram is a unit of mass, and one microgram is equal to one millionth of a gram. But it is less than four

There is still a big gap between the big standards. For example, the Euro IV gasoline standard that was implemented in 2005 requires that the sulfur content per gram of gasoline should not exceed 50 micrograms!" Many people sitting here said.

I couldn't help but take a breath. The difference between fifty micrograms and five hundred micrograms is ten times!

"Moreover, they are said to be implementing Euro V gasoline standards starting next year, requiring that the sulfur content per gram of gasoline should not exceed ten micrograms!" Lu Zhijian added promptly, "And not only

Not only the sulfur content, but also the aromatic hydrocarbons, benzene, olefins and other indicators contained in gasoline will decrease significantly. I have seen European gasoline. Both the smell and color are much lighter than ours. But all

The pollution produced by car exhaust is much smaller than ours, which is also an important reason why although their per capita car ownership far exceeds ours, the pollution they cause is much smaller." Lu Zhijian, as director of the Environmental Protection Department, also "

"Serving" Su Aijun, a boss who is more concerned about environmental issues than the previous governors, is also very stressful. It is rare that this group of leaders suddenly care about the gasoline issue. Of course, he has to sing about the difficulty of the job.

.

"What is the sulfur content of the American standard and the Japanese standard? Does Director Lu know?" Ma Yongfu asked.

Lu Zhijian thought for a while and said: "Japan's latest gasoline standard states that the sulfur content should not exceed fifty micrograms per gram of gasoline. The regulations in various states in the United States are not completely uniform, but basically they should not exceed thirty micrograms per gram of gasoline."

.As for the differences in other aromatic hydrocarbons, benzene, olefins and other indicators, I have to look up the information."

"Director Lu, in terms of sulfur content, should the gasoline currently sold in the province meet the 500 micrograms standard of the new quality standard for automotive gasoline?" Li Dongxing asked.

"Except for the gasoline sold by Pingchuan Petroleum Group Company, there is no such thing!" Lu Zhijian said without hesitation.

"Can't the gasoline sold by three barrels of oil reach the standard?" Shi Wensheng frowned and asked, "What is their current standard?"

"This is because the new quality standards for "Automotive Gasoline" have just been promulgated, so according to tradition, it always takes two to three years for major oil companies to fully adjust the oil products they produce. So currently

Most of the gasoline on the market is still produced according to the previous quality standards, which is the standard of 800 micrograms." Lu Zhijian said.

"Then why is there no problem with Pingchuan Petroleum Group's gasoline?" Li Dongxing was a little surprised. They are all oil companies. Why was Pingchuan Petroleum Group able to adjust quickly?

"Dear leaders, haven't you heard that many drivers in the province now like to refuel at gas stations owned by Pingchuan Petroleum Group Company. They will only go to other gas stations to refuel if they have no other choice," Lu Zhijian said.

"Is there such a thing?" Su Aijun said in surprise. "Why is Pingchuan Petroleum Group's gasoline popular?" He really hadn't paid attention to this issue. Looking at other people present, he didn't seem to know either.

"The quality of oil is actually not only related to the cleanliness of car exhaust, but also to the driving distance and maintenance of the car. For example, the octane number, gum, vapor pressure, distillation range and other indicators of gasoline are directly related to

Regarding the performance of gasoline, the higher the octane number, the better the combustion anti-knock performance. The engine compression of good cars is relatively high. Car owners like to use gasoline with a high octane number, which can ensure the smooth operation of the car and reduce fuel consumption. And

The level of colloid represents the stability of the gasoline. If the colloid in the gasoline is too high, it will cause deposits in the car's air intake system or cause the intake valve to bond. In severe cases, repair or even replacement of parts is required.

Distillation range and vapor pressure are related to the completeness of combustion of gasoline. Some cars emit black smoke when driving because of this indicator. Bad gasoline will increase fuel consumption and wear the engine. There are many other things.

The indicators are all related to the use of cars. If leaders are interested, I can compile a comprehensive information and report to you. In a word, good gasoline not only pollutes less, but is also conducive to car maintenance and reduces

The maintenance and repair expenses of the car owner." Lu Zhijian said, "As far as I know, the maintenance period of good cars imported from Europe and the United States, such as BMW from Germany, in Europe is 25,000 kilometers, but in China, it requires almost one

It needs to be serviced every 12,000 kilometers.”

"To sum up what Director Lu said, it means that the gasoline produced by Pingchuan Petroleum Group Company is better than other companies, and was the gasoline they produced lower than the standard of 500 micrograms before?" Shi Wensheng

smiled.

"What is the quality of the gasoline from Pingchuan Petroleum Group's Donghai Refinery? I can't say, everyone has a good reputation. But the sulfur content of the gasoline produced by Qinxi No. 1 Refinery should be around 100 micrograms, and the maximum is no more than 150 micrograms.

Micrograms. In my opinion, the quality standards of the refined oil produced by their new refinery will be even higher!" Lu Zhijian said with a smile, "So this time the adjustment of the quality standards of automotive gasoline will have a huge impact on Pingchuan Petroleum.

As far as the group company is concerned, it has no impact at all.”

"This kid didn't say anything at all!" Su Aijun laughed, "I didn't even know that the gasoline standards of Pingchuan Petroleum Group Company are much higher than domestic standards."

"This has probably been like this since the days of the Donghai Refinery. We still don't know what that guy's temper is like. The factory will only be built to higher standards and we are definitely not willing to go back." Shi Wensheng said with a smile.

Everyone else here nodded. They were all acquaintances with Fang Mingyuan. Indeed, as Shi Wensheng said, Fang Mingyuan always did whatever he wanted to do, and he always did the best. The Donghai Refinery originally produced

All refined oil products are sold domestically. Although I don’t know much about the whereabouts of these products, the standards are definitely not low. No, the new refinery that has been completed and is about to start production will directly use at least Japan’s gasoline standards as the bottom line.

?.

"Director Lu, the better the oil, the higher the production cost?" Li Dongxing asked.

"That's for sure." Lu Zhijian said without hesitation, "But the specific cost increase... our environmental protection department doesn't know."

"I understand, I understand. There are specialties in the art industry. Strictly speaking, it's a business secret, right?" Li Dongxing waved his hand and said with a smile.

"As long as Secretary Li understands, it is indeed a business secret. The technologies used by major oil companies are different, and the costs are naturally different. But the better the quality of refined oil, the higher the production cost, that's for sure!" Lu Zhijian said

, "Under such circumstances, Pingchuan Petroleum Group Company can still guarantee profits, and we also admire it very much."

"Hey, I think it should be said that after producing so many refined oil products and selling three barrels of oil, they can still claim a loss. I also admire them very much." Shi Wensheng sneered. The oil shortage that year, although it was said that it gave him

The opportunity for promotion, but he was almost pushed into a pit. He knew the reasons behind the oil shortage. And the reason why Pingchuan Petroleum Group Company was established was not thanks to them.

On the contrary, over the years, I have been put in many stumbling blocks by them, either overtly or covertly.

Lu Zhijian looked at Su Aijun with some embarrassment. Vincent said these words were nothing, but he said they were inappropriate. However... Lu Zhijian was a little happy to be able to sit at the same table with these leaders, and what he had just said,

It seems that these leaders are quite satisfied, which should be beneficial to their future career. Moreover, the environmental protection department is now a stepmother in China. Look at their foreign counterparts, all of them have great power, and environmental protection is not

If passed, all factories and enterprises will have to close down for rectification, even internationally renowned oil companies. It also depends on the face of the environmental protection departments in Europe and the United States. It is not like in China, no one listens to what you say, the fines are not painful, and there are officials to protect you.

Those companies cannot carry out their work at all, but the blame for their inaction is entirely borne by the environmental protection department.

Su Aijun pondered for a moment and said: "Zhijian, tell the truth, the gasoline sold in the province, not only the latest standard of 500 micrograms, but also the standard of 800 micrograms, can all of them meet the standard?"

"No!" Lu Zhijian immediately replied, "Including the gas stations owned by China Petrochemical and China National Petroleum Corporation, the gasoline sold by many gas stations does not meet this standard!" (~^~)
