HOME / remote automation solutions for oil and gas applications
Machan offers comprehensive solutions for the manufacture of energy storage enclosures. We have extensive manufacturing experience covering services such as battery enclosures, grid energy storage systems, server cabinets and other sheet metal enclosure OEM services.
This ensures that energy storage cabinets can provide a complete solution in emergency situations such as fires. To accommodate different climates, we provide professional recommendations based on customer usage scenarios and requirements.
The system configuration is modular, support multi-machine parallel, plug and play, easy to install and maintenance. The IP54 waterproof shell makes it perfect to adapt to a variety of indoor or outdoor industrial and commercial application scenarios, such as photovoltaic charging stations, industrial parks, farms, etc.
This ensures that energy storage cabinets maintain excellent appearance and performance, as well as resisting corrosion and UV radiation. We place particular emphasis on comprehensive pre-paint processes, including degreasing, cleaning and neutralisation, to ensure excellent paint adhesion and quality.
Identified actual energy savings of about 9% in refining operations over a decade. Demonstrates the proven effectiveness of structured, long-term energy management. A review of three complex refineries using Best Technology assessments and Pinch Analysis. Identified potential fuel savings of up to 215 Gcal/h (853 MMBTU/h).
By broadening the scope of sustainability metrics, refineries can develop more comprehensive and responsible optimization strategies that not only reduce energy consumption and emissions but also address water conservation, waste reduction, resource efficiency, and social responsibility.
In fact, it is estimated that the CDU is the largest energy consuming process of all refinery processes (see chapter 4). Energy use and products of the CDU depend on the type of crude processed.
In the petroleum refining industry, roughly 59% of all electricity use in motors is for pumps (Xenergy, 1998). This makes pumps the single largest electricity user in a refinery, consuming 48% of the total electrical energy used in a refinery. Pumps are used throughout the entire plant to generate pressure and move liquids.
Approximately 56% of Türkiye's electric power generation capacity consist of renewable energy, including hydroelectric, wind, solar, geothermal, and biomass power plants, making Türkiye the fifth-largest generator of renewable energy in Europe and the 11th largest in the world.
As of January 1, 2023, Türkiye had six refineries with a combined processing capacity of over 826,000 b/d. Türkiye Petrol Rafinerileri AŞ (Tüpraş) operates four of the six refineries and accounts for 71% of the total refining capacity, and Ersan Petrol Sanayi AŞ and STAR Rafineri AŞ collectively hold 243,000 b/d of refining capacity.12

Moreover, there have been significant investments in battery technologies, specifically targeting the storage and the effective use of energy from volatile sources such as wind and solar power. Various projects are underway to integrate energy storage systems into smart grid infrastructure.
Using TRNSYS software, the proposed Parabolic Trough Collector (PTC)-based solar heating system paired with the boiler is modelled. Sensible thermal energy storage (TES) system is integrated into the refinery's process heating to handle the intermittent nature of solar energy.
Conclusion The present study investigates the feasibility of solar hybrid system to generate steam in the oil refinery to maintain the temperature of heavy crude oil products before despatching from storage tanks. Due to the intermittent behaviour of solar energy, the solar hybrid system is integrated with a sensible heat storage tank.
Other studies in the literature considered coupling solar energy systems to oil refineries to decarbonize their operation. The applicability and feasibility of introducing a concentrated solar power (CSP) system to reduce partial reliance on process heaters of a crude oil refinery was studied by Danish et al. .
The amount of fuel and cost savings by the integration of a solar hybrid system into the refinery and the payback period of the system by using different types of fuel in the furnace are shown in Table 6. Table 6. Payback period of the proposed system by using different fuel.
Using TRNSYS software, the proposed Parabolic Trough Collector (PTC)-based solar heating system paired with the boiler is modelled. Sensible thermal energy storage (TES) system is integrated into the refinery's process heating to handle the intermittent nature of solar energy.
The situation is expected to get worse in the near future unless the investment on the transmission and distribution infrastructure is made properly. *OCI is the only company in Korea producing polysilicon, and it's total production capacity is 39 700 tonnes including 35 000 tonnes in Malaysia.
Consequently, the network failure rate for delivering electricity to the refinery is pragmatically considered as nil. Notably, the maximum power absorption capacity from the grid stands at 60 MW.
