Our SplitOxy oxygen enrichment technology was chosen to revamp the SRU-IV unit in Ecopetrol’s Gerencia Refinería Barrancabermeja in Colombia. The refinery needed to expand the SRU's capacity from 52 t/day to 90 t/day, which is an extra capacity of more than 70%. The SplitOxy made it possible with minimum capital expenditure while providing operational flexibility and control. Despite the hurdles due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the commissioning and start-up were recently successfully performed, thanks to "smart assistance/supervision" Siirtec Nigi provided.
