The Lu-ta Petroleum Refinery is capable of both primary and secondary
distillation processes. It was built by the Japanese in 1934, and was
expanded to twice its original size from 1948 to the present. When first
observed on photography of August 1962, the following major refining units were
complete and in operation: a crude distillation unit, a thermal cracking unit,
a lubrication oil production area, and two possible light ends units. Between
August 1962 and September 1968, a second thermal cracking unit, a possible
lubrication oil production area, and a possible reform unit were added, each
going into operation upon completion. The refinery reached full operation
by September 1968. Its products include straight-run, cracked, and blended
gasolines, wax, lubricating oils, diesel and fuel oils, asphalt, kerosene,
butanes, butylenes, propanes, and propylenes.
This report includes a detailed line drawing and a photograph of the
refinery, mensuration of storage tanks, and a discussion of the status of
the facilities in the refinery.
