Saudi Aramco Jumbo Refinery with Top Class Marker Buoys

From 2010 to 2014, Resinex has installed on behalf of Saudi Aramco 12 signalling buoys of the access channels to the refinery of Jeddah (KSA). They are buoys type PEM 25 (diameter 2500 mm), type PEM 21 (diameter 2100 mm) and type PEM 18 (diameter 1800 mm). We are referring to buoys with plastic floating modules, they are shockproof resistant  and have a low maintenance costs throughout their life time. Focal plane is 4.1 m for the PEM 25 buoys and of 3 m for the other models.


Signalling buoys with plastic floating modules

Saudi Aramco is the greatest oil and gas producer in the world. In 2013, they produced 12.7 millions of BOE (barrels of oil and natural gas equivalent) per day. Resinex and Saudi Aramco started a long collaboration since the 70′s and this cooperation still goes on also today. Resinex has projected and made for Aramco, special underwater floats and chain passing through buoys destined to the oil fields of the Eastern coast of Saudi Arabia.

Products, which are constantly used by the great Saudi operator.



Thanks to the long experience, when Aramco decided to improve the marine signalization of their refinery in Jeddah,  they have chosen Resinex once again. The Aramco refinery in Jeddah, has a refining capacity of 350.000 barrels per day which can reach 450.000 bbl/per day during peak loads.  They produce diesel, unleaded gasoline and asphalt for internal market and naphtha for overseas markets.
