Company Profile |
Midor Refinery is a modern environmentally friendly grass root Refinery in close proximity to the Sumed pipeline terminal at Sidi Krir & Dekhleia Port in Alexandria.
The project investment is around $ 1.2 billion.
Ownership of the Refinery's in fence facilities is divided between MIDOR & MIDTAP.
The process units are owned by MIDOR whereas the utilities and offsite facilities are owned by MIDTAP.
MIDOR Refinery is a successful example of the cooperation between the Egyptian government & the private sector.
Its processing scheme is based upon high conversion processes to maximize middle distillate products, applying licenses from UOP & Conoco Bechtel.
The Refinery is designed to process 5 million tons of crude oil annualy.
The philosophy of this Refinery is based on establishing a profitable economic project adhering to all environmental regulations, using the latest scientific and technological methods to provide the maximum flexibility in operating to suit the fluctuating market trends.
Company Aim |
The aim of the company is reaching Egypt's ambition to create an up to date state of the Art, integrated oil Refinery complex producing the highest quality standard products. This is to achievable by creating MIDOR Refinery and other service companies to facilitate the availability of crude and exportation of its products.
Strategy |
MIDOR Refinery is considered the first private shareholders Refinery Joint Venture between the State of Oil Company (EGPC) & Private Sector Investor (see graph below).
MIDOR is Egypt's first Refinery having a private port, which will help Egypt to penetrate the international market.
MIDOR Refinery is considered a prime example of a Grass Root Refinery applying the latest technology in its units. These units have been designed to cope with the most stringent environmental regulations for affluent product treatment, in accordance with the European Environmental Regulations.
The Refinery incorporates 8 units under license from international companies. MIDOR has secured these licenses from UOP & Conoco-Bechtel, both are American companies. These high technology licensed units are a Hydrocracker, Continuous Catalytic Reforming (CCR), Isomerization unit and Delayed Coker. It is rare to find these four units incorporated in one refinery at the same time.
These units produce high quality petroleum products like high octane unleaded gasoline (95, 98), diesel low sulphur & jet fuel. The units present in MIDOR Refinery enjoy high operational flexibility in accordance with fluctuating market needs. All these factors give MIDOR a high complexity index of 8.69, which is higher than most refineries in Europe.
MIDOR shall supply Egypt with all the needs for diesel, LPG & other products. MIDOR shall also export to Europe all excess production.

Refinery Control System |
The Refinery is equipped with Foxborow DCS designed with 1 main Explosion Control Room and Satellite Control Rooms, major rotating equipment are equipped with MMS and radar.
The Refinery The Midor Refinery Automation & Control system covers all the Process, Utility and offsite units with the exception of pipeline & pipeline terminal automation.
The Design of the "Control & Safety System architecture" is based on the following type of systems:
Distributed Control System (DCS) to mange all normal process operations (with redundancy for all critical shared components of control such as: digital controllers, power supply, I/O buses, proprietary network, I/O analog control cards for closer control loop and to monitor & control in MCR all significant measurement, alarm or status change in the plant through standard DCS workstations arranged in consoles BAY and operator stations.
Emergency Shutdown (ESD) system to handle emergency shut-down actions, and the managing of critical alarms. Basically , ESD systems are based upon PLCs spread in SCC with data links or wired connections for actions involving several ESD PLC. ESD PLC is linked to DCS network.
Process interlocks and sequential controls in normal operation are performed by the same PLC performing the ESD function, through PLC analog inputs and digital I/O cards. This includes the process control of Machinery and MCC interfacing. The process PLCs for ESD and interlocks is located directly in ESS. The MCC interface is done by means of terminal strips, interposing relay and either by the Hardwired signal coming from the PLC installed in the SCC (for ESD and interlock signals).
Fire & Gas Detection System (FGS) to generate detection and field alarm consecutive to any case of fire or abnormal concentration detected with the following redundancy:
Local panel digital controller, local panel power supplies for digital controllers multidrop network, master PLC digital controller (TÜV certified), master PLC power supplies, RTU serial link in fire-house.
Alarming in MCR and in fire House is performed through dedicated F&G interfaces and automatic action, if any, is performed by dedicated control system (CAS).
Specific Controller or sub-system for special application as anti-surge performance controller, speed controllers, machine monitoring system (MMS) for vibration, axial displacement, etc. These controllers and sub-system are limited to the basic level of control, the operating interface if performed through DCS operator console in MCR and in the control panel operator display in SCC. MMS is provided with dedicated M.M.I (Man Machine Interface) in Main Control Room (M.C.R.).
Tank Gauging System (TGS) to monitor storage area. Serial interface with Filed devices, DCS and dedicated console in M.C.R is provided.
The system is provided with redundant (hot stand-by) power supply, interface units, serial connection with DCS.
MOV Control System (MCS) to handle the MOV in the Refinery area. Serial interface with Field actuators, DCS, and dedicated console in M.C.R is provided.
The system is provided with redundant power supply, master control station, serial communication with DCS.
Metering system (MS) to measure the LPG export connected to DCS
