SRU2 Project – Upgrading the capacity of Dung Quat Refinery

Dung Quat Refinery is the first large-scale grassroots refinery in Vietnam. It plays an important role in the country’s energy security over decades.

When the demand increased, Binh Son Refining & Petrochemical Co. Ltd. (BSR), a subsidiary of state-owned Vietnam National Oil & Gas Group (PetroVietnam), was planned a project to maximize plant availability, namely " Additional Sulfur Recovery Unit Project – SRU2". The operation of SRU2 will increase the capacity of sulfur recovery of Dung Quat Refinery up to 18 tonnes per day instead of 5 tonnes per day earlier.
