Abstract

1. The existing method of calculating technological norms for consumption of fuel, thermal and electrical power for enterprises in the petroleum processing industry does not make it possible to find out the comparative efficiency of power cost, nor to determine correctly a progressive norm. 2. By using the “relative reduced capacity”, it is possible to analyze, to what extent the power cost level depends on the process scheme of refining and on the ratio of the outputs of process units. Applying the consumption norms for fuel, thermal and electrical power per unit of crude being processed, which are established as a function of relative reduced capacity, we can determine the comparative efficiency of power costs during different periods of operation and compare the results of power utilization in different refineries.
