Oil refinery towers
Oil refinery towers. An oil refinery is where crude oil, a mixture of hydrocarbons, is refined (separated) in parts called fractions. These are separated by boiling the crude oil in distillation towers (stills) called pipestills. The products are then refined and processed further, going through purification, cracking, reforming, and yet more purification stages. Final products include fuels like petrol, diesel and jet fuel, as well as raw materials used in the chemical industry.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the impressive oil refinery towers at ExxonMobil's Fawley Oil Refinery and Chemical Plant in Hampshire, UK. These towering structures play a crucial role in the refining process of crude oil, separating it into various fractions through distillation. As the crude oil is boiled within these pipestills, different products are obtained and further refined to meet specific requirements. The significance of this industrial marvel extends beyond just fuel production. The final products derived from this complex refining process include essential fuels like petrol, diesel, and jet fuel that power our transportation systems. Additionally, raw materials used extensively in the chemical industry are also extracted here. The image captures not only the technological prowess but also highlights the intricate engineering behind this facility. With its European charm and British excellence, this English landmark stands tall as a symbol of innovation and progress within the oil industry. It is important to note that while Science Photo Library brings us this remarkable photograph print showcasing an integral part of our modern society's infrastructure, no commercial use should be associated with it. Instead, let us appreciate how science and technology have come together to refine natural resources efficiently while adhering to strict purification processes for a sustainable future.
