As a cradle of ancient civilization and a country with abundant natural resources, Iraq is one of the world’s leading oil producers. The oil industry serves as the backbone of Iraq’s economy, contributing significantly to its GDP and export revenues.
To meet growing domestic energy demands and strengthen its oil production infrastructure, a major oil refinery in one of Iraq’s economic hubs has embarked on a capacity expansion project. The focus of this upgrade is the installation of a vacuum distillation unit, a critical step to enhance the refinery’s output.
After extensive evaluation of global suppliers, the refinery selected our Boilers as its trusted partner. The project will integrate our SZS series oil and gas steam boilers, which provide the necessary thermal energy for core refinery processes.
