據ICIS-MRC網站12月14日莫斯科報道，據烴加工網信息顯示，雪佛龍Lummus全球有限責任公司(CLG)和沙特阿美日前宣布，他們已經簽署了一項聯合合作和許可協議，共同開發和批準沙特阿美的稠油加工技術倡議(HOPI+)。

HOPI+旨在使用CLG的LC-精餾平臺（統稱為 LC-HOPI+）實現減壓渣油和其他包括增量原油在內可用重質原料的相對較高的轉化率。LC-HOPI+ 創新工藝有望幫助最大限度地減少資本支出和運營支出，并顯著提高桶底升級的利潤率。

LC-HOPI+創新流程有望幫助最小化資本支出和運營支出，并顯著提高桶底升級的利潤率。

2019年，沙特阿美技術人員加入了CLG在位于加利福尼亞州里士滿的研發設施團隊，以創建和開發初始概念試點測試。那里的成功促使針對不同工藝方案的進一步 HOPI+評估，這進一步幫助量化了該技術的附加值。

CLG董事總經理Ujjal Mukherjee表示，HOPI+與CLG的LC-精餾平臺相結合，是一種創新概念，可同時提高稠油產量并將殘渣轉化為有價值的運輸燃料和石化原料，同時最大限度地減少資本投入和能源成本。隨著我們開發、追求和商業化新的創新技術，該倡議進一步加強了沙特阿美和CLG之間的關系。

雪佛龍Lummus Global和沙特阿美現在打算在CLG全球商業化之前共同開發LC-HOPI+技術。

Saudi Aramco and Chevron Lummus Global to co-develop Aramco HOPI+ technology

Chevron Lummus Global LLC (CLG) and Saudi Aramco announced that they have signed a joint collaboration and license agreement to co-develop and license Saudi Aramco's Heavy Oil Processing Initiative (HOPI+) technology, according to Hydrocarbonprocessing.

HOPI+ aims to achieve relatively higher conversion of vacuum residue and other available heavy feeds, including incremental crude, using CLG's LC-FINING platform (jointly referred to as LC-HOPI+). The LC-HOPI+ innovative process is expected to help minimize both CAPEX and OPEX and significantly improve margins for bottom-of-the-barrel upgrading.

In 2019, Saudi Aramco joined CLG at its research and development facility in Richmond, California, to create and develop the initial concept pilot testing. Success there led to further HOPI+ evaluations against different process schemes, which further helped quantify the technology's added value.

"HOPI+, combined with CLG's LC-FINING platform, is an innovative concept that simultaneously increases crude throughput and converts residue to valuable transportation fuels and petrochemical feedstock while minimizing capital and energy," said Ujjal Mukherjee, Managing Director, CLG. "The initiative further strengthens the relationship between Saudi Aramco and CLG as we develop, pursue and commercialize new and innovative technology."

Chevron Lummus Global and Saudi Aramco now intend to co-develop LC-HOPI+ technology before global commercialization by CLG.
