У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 100,000 BBL per day Jordan Petroleum Al Zarqa Refinery — це приблизно медіана refinery у Jordan (100,000 BBL per day). Підсектор: oil-and-gas-refining. Як refinery, воно вимагає високотемпературного технологічного тепла (зазвичай 200–600°C) для основних промислових операцій — тепла, яке повинне подаватися котлами, печами або прямим спаленням, і втрати через неізольовані судини та трубопроводи представляють витрачене напразно паливо. Знімна модульна теплоізоляція може зменшити ці втрати на 80–96%, охолодивши поверхню обладнання до ≤45°C, з окупністю часто менше 2 років. Нафтопереробні заводи нагрівають, фракціонують і хімічно трансформують сиру нафту у паливо та нафтохімічну сировину шляхом енергомісткої дистиляції та крекінгу — надзвичайно вимогливі до генерування пари та рекуперації тепла.
