The Chairman of Uzbekneftegaz Mekhriddin Abdullayev visited the Uzbekistan GTL plant in order to study production processes and prepare for the launch of production of final products.
During the visit, he got acquainted with the operational status of the plant’s main production units and was briefed on the performance of the units.
Afterwards, the Working Group, led by the Chairman, studied the operating condition of the Fischer-Tropsch reactors.
He got acquainted with the findings of laboratory tests of synthetic oil produced in the Central Laboratory of the plant.
It is gratifying that the Uzbekistan GTL plant has officially produced the first batch of synthetic oil in the history of Uzbekistan’s petrochemical industry.
The resulting synthetic oil is the main feedstock for the production of synthetic diesel fuel, jet fuel, naphtha and liquefied gas at the GTL plant.
Synthetic oil produced is currently stored in the plant's intermediate storage tanks and production of high quality, environmentally friendly synthetic liquid fuels will soon begin through refining, including GTL diesel, kerosene, naphtha and LPG.
On June 14, 2022, the production of synthesis gas was fully launched at the GTL plant. On the night of June 14-15, the produced synthesis gas was sent for the first time to the Fischer-Tropsch reactors, the facility for the production of synthetic fluid.
It is noteworthy that the main commissioning of the plant, in particular, ensuring the synchronous operation of about 11 thousand pieces of equipment and main production facilities, as well as their full control, management are carried out independently by engineers, young specialists of the Uzbekistan GTL plant, without the participation of foreign specialists.
