The Shell Scotford Complex, situated northeast of Edmonton in Alberta, encompasses a bitumen upgrader, oil refinery, chemicals plant, and the Quest Carbon Capture and Storage facility. This integrated hydrocarbon processing site efficiently converts oil sands bitumen into marketable products, showcasing modern technology and processes.
Established in 1984 with subsequent expansions in 2000 and 2011, the complex includes a hydrogen-addition upgrader producing light synthetic crude oil. The adjacent refinery refines synthetic crude oil into various products like gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and more, meeting Western Canada's energy needs.
The Shell Scotford Chemicals Plant utilizes byproducts from the refinery to manufacture styrene monomer and ethylene glycol. Its Responsible Care verification underscores a commitment to health, safety, and environmental stewardship, ensuring the production of quality chemical products for North American markets.
