Abstract

More light products from crude oil – A challenge to the oil industry. A new long‐term pattern of demand for oil is evolving mainly due to the politically limited availability of crude oil and increasing prices. For the Federal Republic of Germany an essentially constant level of demand for naphtha and gasoline is expected with a shrinking demand for distillate and fuel oil. The expected pattern cannot be met by the currently predominating hydroskimming process. Technological possibilities and development of conversion processes are emphasized in this article: Thermal catalytic and hydrocracking as well as hydroconverting for steam cracker feed generation. Increasing importance is predicted for residue cracking. Oil will continue to make a major contribution and the oil industry will be able to keep step with product demand.
