Activity: petroleum refining
Date of Creation: 2000
Ownership: public and private
The Khartoum Refinery is jointly invested in and con-
structed by CNPC and the Sudanese Ministry of En-
ergy and Mining. CNPC has a 50% holding and both
built and continues to operate the refinery. The ob-
jective of establishing KRC is to process Sudanese
indigenous crude oil to cover the needs of Sudan
petroleum products.
The construction of the refinery commenced in May
1998 and it became operational in May 2000. It has
an annual processing capacity of 2.5 million tons. Its
Phase II construction was completed in June 2006,
increasing its crude processing capacity to 5 million
tons. In 2006, a total of 4.16 million tons of crude was
processed in this refinery. In 2007, a total of 4.74
million metric tons was processed at this Refinery.
KRC location is unique as it lies 70km north of Khar-
toum, 13km from the eastern bank of The River
Nile and close to Nile Blend Crude pipeline, the old
product pipeline, the railway linking Port Sudan and
Khartoum and El Tahadi highway linking Atbara and
Khartoum.KRC is self dependant on utilities, besides
the processing units, it has Power Station, Water Pu-
rification Station (on the bank of The River Nile), Air
Separation & Air Compression Unit, Cooling Water
Treatment System, Boiler Feed Water Treatment
System, Waste Water Treatment System as well as
Oil Movement System and Central laboratory.
Sudan and the state firm China National Petroleum
Corp (CNPC) signed on November 17, 2009 an
agreement on the second phase of the expansion
of the refinery. The minister of energy is willing to
increase the production to 200 thousand barrels per
day instead of its current capacity of 100,000 bpd to
meet the growing need of oil derivatives.
“Refine Energy, Refine the Future”, for the purpose
of promoting local economical development and fur-
thering oil cooperation between Sudan and china, all
Sudanese and Chinese engineers will shoulder by
shoulder, hand in hand, overcome all the obstacles
and create the tremendous history.”
