Sharjah tolling model

Refinery Co-processing in Sharjah

A coordinated route that combines renewable feedstocks with conventional refinery streams, supported by Mercurol’s commercial, sustainability and export activities.

How production works

Contracted processing. Mercurol coordination.

Our production is carried out through a tolling agreement with premium refinery in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates. Under this model, feedstocks are processed on Mercurol’s behalf at the partner refinery, while Mercurol coordinates feedstock sourcing, sustainability management, product sales and export activities.

Co-processing introduces selected renewable feedstocks into refinery processing alongside conventional hydrocarbons. The resulting products contain both renewable and fossil-derived components. The renewable share depends on the feedstock mix, conversion process and supporting production data.

We are implementing a proportional mass balance approach to track eligible quantities through processing and allocate sustainability characteristics to product deliveries, supported by documented conversion factors, losses and traceability records.

Four-stage route

Feedstock to export, coordinated end to end

Each stage creates the commercial, processing or documentary evidence needed for a defined supply opportunity.

Feedstock Sourcing

Selected renewable feedstocks are sourced and coordinated for the programme.

Refinery Co-processing

Renewable feedstocks enter refinery processing alongside conventional hydrocarbons.

Product Quality and Traceability

Quality information, conversion data and sustainability records are managed through the route.

Export Supply

Mercurol coordinates product sales and export supply with qualified buyers.

Processing responsibilities

A defined operating boundary

The tolling model keeps Mercurol’s programme responsibilities distinct from the refinery’s physical processing activities.

Mercurol

Feedstock sourcing, sustainability management, sales and export coordination

Partner refinery

Processing on Mercurol’s behalf, production records and quality support

Joint alignment

Agreed feedstock route, product requirement, volume and delivery programme

Traceability approach

Proportional mass balance

Eligible quantities are followed through processing using linked input, conversion and output records.

The approach is being implemented to track eligible quantities through processing and allocate sustainability characteristics to product deliveries. Documented conversion factors, losses and traceability records support the calculation route.
