Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Queensland recently agreed to fast-track approvals for a fuel upgrade at Ampol Limited's (Sydney, New South Wales) Lytton Refinery in Brisbane. Australia's latest federal emission-reduction guidelines are expected to become mandatory by the end of 2024, bolstering production of lower-emission fuels.
Queensland's decision to expedite Ampol's project will expedite production of ultra-low sulfur gasoline for the domestic market, and bolster cleaner fuel emissions over the next two years. The Lytton Refinery upgrade includes the construction of a new desulfurization unit. Subscribers to Industrial Info's Global Market Intelligence (GMI) Petroleum Refining Project Database can read more in a detailed project report.
In 2021, after years of losses, Ampol finalized a partnership with Queensland to maintain the Lytton Refinery's operations until 2027. Industrial Info is tracking more than US$212 million worth of active projects at the Lytton Refinery. Subscribers can click here for a list of project reports and click here for a plant profile.
