New Talara Refinery
Description
The Talara Refinery Modernization Project is a megaproject of engineering and construction, which consists of the installation of new processes units and facilities oriented to improve the quality of the products, increase the production capacity of the refinery and new more complex processes and more advanced technology. The economic and socio-environmental benefits are the following:
- Desulfurize fuels.
- Improve the octane rating of naphthas.
- Process heavier crudes
- Decrease the production of residuals.
- Implement new facilities that the Modernized Refinery will require.
- Produce cleaner fuels

Current situation as of 06.30.2021
- In the period between 03.16.2020 and 06.14.2020, the construction activities of the project were suspended, due to the declaration of the State of National Emergency as part of the measures established by the Government to stop the advance of COVID- 19, maintaining only the activities necessary to protect the industrial safety of the facilities and equipment. In June, the works were progressively restarted, complying with the protocols approved and established in the Project's Plan for the Surveillance, Prevention and Control of COVID-19.
- The approval of the change proposals of Técnicas Reunidas and Cobra for the impacts on time and costs originated by the State of National Emergency due to COVID-19 during the year 2021 is being managed.
- To date, the Level 3 Rev. Master Schedule is technically accepted.9 presented by Técnicas Reunidas and is in the process of approval by the corresponding levels of PETROPERÚ. For Auxiliary Units, there is an estimate by Cía. Supervisora CPT and is subject to modification when the EPC Cobra-SCL Contractor presents its updated Master Schedule. At the same time, it is necessary to indicate that the rev. 10 of the schedule proposed by Técnicas Reunidas.
