Petrochemicals
The petrochemical industry is a fundamentally cyclical business in which long-term success requires a sustainable competitive advantage. Achieving this in petrochemicals requires in-depth analysis of all aspects of operations to find opportunities for operational improvements, and, thus, profit improvement.

KBC Petrochemical Services cover a wide range of programs designed to help petrochemical companies improve profitability through all stages of the project and business cycle. Our position as a leading, independent consultancy in profit improvement across refining, base petrochemicals, and derivatives allows KBC to assist clients with projects from high level strategic issues to unit optimisation.

In addition, KBC also assists clients with Refinery–Petrochemical Integration, which not only optimises profitability, but it can:
  • Allow the provision of more/better quality feedstocks to petrochemicals
  • Maximise upgrading value of byproducts and potential feeds
  • Deliver economies and efficiencies by sharing utilities, support services, and infrastructure
KBC projects have confirmed profit increases of US$20-50 million/year when attractive capital projects are included. Benefits of this scale have an impact on site competitiveness and profitability.
