中国石化新闻网讯 据全球能源新闻网3月17日报道，埃克森美孚宣布其博蒙特（Beaumont）炼油厂扩建项目成功启动，该项目将为美国墨西哥湾沿岸最大的炼油和石化厂之一，每天增加25万桶产能。在该公司在二叠纪盆地不断增长原油产量的支持下，十多年来最大的炼油厂扩建将有助于满足对经济、可靠能源日益增长的需求。
博蒙特的新增产量使其总加工能力增加到每天63万多桶，成为美国最大的炼油厂之一。
该炼油厂与埃克森美孚在美国二叠纪盆地运营的管道相连，为该公司提供了重大的战略优势。二叠纪原油在博蒙特炼油厂加工，该公司在那里生产成品，包括柴油、汽油和航空燃料。随着Wink至Webster和Beaumont管道的完工，新的原油装置也将处于有利地位，可以进一步利用特拉华盆地的裂解原油。
博蒙特扩建工程于2019年开始施工，有1700名承包商参与。
