GAS REFINERIES ©2015 Jurandir Primo Page 1 of 87 www.PDHcenter.com PDHonline Course M557 www.PDHonline.org I. INTRODUCTION Refining is a complex series of processes that manufactures finished petroleum products out of cru- de oil. While refining begins as a simple distillation (by heating and separating), refineries use more sophisticated additional processes and equipment in order to produce the mix of products that the market demands. Generally, this latter effort minimizes the production of heavier, lower value pro- ducts (for example, residual fuel oil, used to power large ocean ships) in favor of middle distillates (jet fuel, kerosene, home heating oil and diesel fuel) and lighter, higher value products (liquid petro- leum gases (LPG), naphtha, and gasoline). The main objective of refineries is to convert crude oil into useable petroleum products. Typically, one barrel of crude oil is approximately 19 gallons of gasoline, nine gallons of distillates (home heat- ing fuel, diesel and kerosene), plus lesser amounts of other refined products such as, jet fuel, liquid petroleum gas and residual oil. To a limited extent, refiners can adjust the refining process to alter the resulting mix of refined products, and to fit changing customer needs.

Date: April 16, 2014 Subject: Remediation Approach for Pt. Wells Urban Center EIS, Richmond Beach Asphalt and Marine Fuels Terminal Introduction This memorandum provides a brief introduction to the Richmond Beach Terminal (Site) related to the history and status of current and potential future remedial activities at the Site in support of Ecology’s review and comment on the EIS being prepared by Snohomish County for the Pt. Wells Urban Center project. This memorandum is also intended to be combined with a yet-to-be scheduled meeting to discuss the details of the information presented here and available from the extensive files and data sources for the Site. This memorandum also reflects information submitted to Ecology on January 31, 2014 in regard to Ecology’s request for an Agreed Order for the Site. Background In 1911, Standard Oil purchased waterfront property on Point Wells, also known as Richmond Beach, from the Factory Improvement Company, constructed a 175-foot wharf and four large fuel oil tanks, and initially used the property primarily for a marine fueling station (this property is presumed to be the current Tank Farm Area). Royal Dutch Shell and Associated Oil Company bought smaller adjoining properties. By 1914 Standard Oil had enlarged the facility to handle a full range of products, adding 14 more tanks, a warehouse, a lube filling shed, and an asphalt shed, and extending the wharf.

NASH* INTRODUCTION The energy crises that engulfed Americans in the 1970s acted like a shock wave to alert them to the fact that the nation's available sup- ply of natural resources would be increasingly limited in the last two decades of the 20th century. The Arab Oil Boycott of 1974 and the Iranian Revolution of 1979 in particular contributed to growing in- security about access to cheap, plentiful petroleum deposits. This concern was reflected in a plethora of "solutions" to the energy problem by scores of real or imagined experts during the 1970s.' To channel and institutionalize responses to the problem Congress in 1974 authorized creation of the Federal Energy Administration and elevated it in 1977 to a cabinet-level agency, the Department of En- ergy.2 President Carter, in a play of rhetoric, "declared war" on the energy crisis. His goal was to mobilize public opinion behind a na- tional program to cope with a developing dilemma for Americans- 3 increased consumption and shrinking resources.
