The structure of energy outlays at an oil refinery (OR) with a fuel profile is analyzed, and reserves of their economy, and possible means of improving energy demand are revealed. It is demonstrated that in perspective, the energy-saving problem can be rationally solved by the construction of an integrated gasification plant as a component part of the OR with generation of electric power in a combined cycle. A complex flow diagram is proposed for the refining of crude, which will make it possible to create an integrated complex based on traditional processes and the latest electrotechnical technologies. Such a complex can thereafter be readily converted to an oil refinery of the future – a basic supplier of electric power and hydrogen.
