INTRODUCTION
This report presents the results of a study of the
economic impact, on the U. S. refining industry, of regula-
tions which would reduce the vapor pressure of summer gaso-
line. The study was conducted under subcontract to Southwest
Research Institute (SwRI) of San Antonio, Texas, the prime
contractor for a work assignment project commissioned by the
U. S. Environmental Protection Agency.
This study was initiated as a quick-response analy-
sis of the refining industry costs involved in restricting
vapor pressure in summer gasoline in the United States. To
limit execution time and costs, only the Atlantic Coast,
Mid-Continent and Gulf Coast regions were explicitly modeled
and analyzed.
After interim reporting of initial results, several
alternative situations or conditions were identified by the
EPA as important extensions to the study. It was also
decided that all results would be documented in a complete
and formal manner in order to allow wider distribution of and
broader access to the study than was originally envisioned.
It must be emphasized that expanding the study scope
to include formal documentation did not expand the scope of
the study itself, i.e., regionality remained restricted to
the three-region basis as originally defined. The reader is,
therefore, encouraged to review discussions of study approach
and methodology (see Section 2, particularly subsection 2.3»
which is a direct discussion of study limitations).

1.1	STUDY BACKGROUND
The language and content of this report assume that
the reader is generally familiar with petroleum refining.
The report, therefore, makes use of terms and references
to processes used in petroleum refining without definition.
On the other hand, the results presented do not require inti-
mate knowledge of refining technology and can be understood
with only a general knowledge of the major facets of refinery
operations and their general relationship to gasoline manufac-
ture. A brief overview of refinery operations, the importance
of controlling gasoline volatility and possible means for
restricting volatility are presented in subsequent paragraphs
of this introduction for readers desiring a broad familiarity
with the subject being analyzed.
1.1.1 Refinery Overview
Petroleum refineries are designed to separate crude
oil, a complex mixture of hydrocarbon materials, into frac-
tions with boiling ranges, combustion characteristics and
other properties which are desirable in a variety of fuels,
lubricants, solvents and petrochemical feedstocks. Processes
are also installed and used to adjust product qualities and
volumes in order to satisfy end-user demands.
In the U. S., motor gasoline is the major fuel prod-
duct of refining. Its demand is normally greater than the
volume of gasoline which can be distilled from most crude
oils. Therefore, processes are used to thermally and cata-
lytically "crack" or break up large hydrocarbon molecules
present in distilled crude fractions, converting the less
desirable fractions into materials with a boiling range
SWR-8501
Bonner 6 Moore Management Science

-------
within that bracketed for gasoline. Each refinery process
produces a mixture of materials which makes the resultant
material more or less suitable for a particular end product.
Final product volume and quality are achieved by selective
blending of available streams from the refining processes.
Each refinery is, thus, a combination of processes whose
capability varies with the kind of crude to be processed as
well as the volume and quality demands for its finished pro-
ducts .
In general, when more restrictive product specifica-
tions are imposed (either by regulatory changes or by changes
in engine design, for example), it becomes necessary to alter
the conversion and blending operations to satisfy the addi-
tional requirements. Such changes normally impact the cost
of manufacturing all end products, not just the product
in question. It is, therefore, necessary to evaluate the
overall cost impact on the entire refining operation in order
to ascertain the cost of specific changes to a single product
such as reduction of gasoline volatility. It is also possible
for a change to be large enough to require new or expanded
processes. Such large-magnitude changes involve capital ex-
penditures as well as operating costs for the new or expanded
processes.
1.1.2 Gasoline Volatility, Its Purpose and Control
To function properly as a fuel for spark-ignited
internal-combustion engines, gasolines must have certain
volatility characteristics. To permit easy starting of a
cold engine, for example, the fuel must contain enough low-
boiling hydrocarbons to provide, at ambient temperature,
an air-fuel vapor mixture that is rich enough to be spark-
ignited. Performance, after start-up and during and after
SVJR-8501

-------
warm-up of the engine, is also influenced by the concen-
trations of low-boiling constituents. If, however, the
concentration of low-boiling hydrocarbons is not restricted,
the fuel pump (after warm-up) may become "vapor locked" and
fail to deliver enough fuel to support combustion, causing
the engine to stall. Gasoline is normally blended with a
volatility that is just below the level that might cause
vapor lock.
With recognition that hydrocarbon emissions ad-
versely affect air quality, evaporative losses of low-boiling
hydrocarbons from vehicle fuel systems have become another
reason for concern about gasoline volatility. Lowering
gasoline volatility by decreasing the maximum allowable vapor
pressure is one possible means of reducing evaporative losses.
To do so, however, will increase the cost of manufacturing
gasoline. To understand the reasons for the increased cost
of low-volatility gasoline, it is helpful to review the manner
by which gasoline volatility is controlled during fuel manu-
facture and the nature of certain relevant economic factors.
As formulated, gasoline normally contains hydro-
carbons with boiling points ranging from 31 degrees Fahrenheit
to approximately 400 degrees Fahrenheit.* The concentrations
of hydrocarbons in this range are controlled to satisfy a
variety of quality characteristics, including volatility.
This control is accomplished by adjusting the refining
processes which produce gasoline blend stocks and by the
careful blending of these intermediate stocks to produce
finished gasolines. Properties of blend stocks are determined
largely by the nature of the processes involved, but can be
•Small amounts of hydrocarbons boiling outside this range
are usually present because physical separation processes
are imperfect.

-------
varied somewhat by adjusting the operating conditions of those
processes. Satisfying quality requirements of finished
gasoline is, therefore, achieved primarily by controlled
blending of available blend stocks and secondarily by control
of operating conditions of processes by which blend stocks
are made.
Two measures of volatility are used to obtain de-
sired cold-start and warm-up characteristics in fuel. These
measures are Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP)* and the temperatures
below which specified percentages of the gasoline must boil.t
Company-proprietary product specifications may involve the
cited ASTM schedule or similar restrictions on the distilla-
tion properties of gasolines. Seasonal and regional adjust-
ment is generally employed to account for ambient prevailing
conditions. Vapor lock tendency is also controlled via a
combination of vapor pressure and percent distilled at 158°F,
namely,
VL1 = RVP (psi) 4 0.13 (% 0 158<>F).
This same relationship has been given the name Front-End
Volatility Index (FEVI), and has been shown to relate to
evaporative losses^. These two properties are related chiefly
to the concentration of the lowest-boiling hydrocarbon con-
stituents, namely butanes and pentanes (C4S and C5S) blended
into gasoline. To a somewhat lesser extent, the concentration
of C6 components is also involved. Thus, control of gasoline
volatility is related to the inclusion of these hydrocarbons
in gasoline blend stocks.

-------
Most refiners have access to normal butane (nC^),
both as a purchased raw material and as a refinery stream.
Historically, normal butane has been available as a by-
product from natural gas processing and has been priced well
below gasoline. Thus, the refiner has an incentive to blend
the maximum amount of butane into his gasoline as limited by
vapor-lock considerations. A further incentive is the fact
that normal butane has a high octane rating and thus reduces
the cost of meeting octane requirements for finished gaso-
lines.
Gasoline volatility is controlled to meet limits
imposed by the average ambient temperatures of the region in
which it will be sold. If gasoline volatility were restricted
below present levels, refiners would further restrict the
amount of low-boiling hydrocarbons in their blends. This
would prevent the use of normal butane, a relatively inexpen-
sive component, and in addition would require compensation for
the octane quality which the butane would otherwise provide.
The first step toward meeting more restrictive RVP limits
would be to restrict (or discontinue) the blending of butane,
as such. The second step would be to change processing to
exclude butane presently contained in other blend stocks.
This could require modification of existing separation facil-
ities and/or the installation of new facilities to remove
contained butanes. As a further step, extreme RVP limits
could require removal of some C5 components which in most
cases would require new separation facilities. Not only
would the refinery incur additional costs for removal of
these hydrocarbons from gasoline, there also would be a loss
in revenue since the rejected materials would be less valuable
in their alternative dispositions. Achieving these alternate
dispositions would require capital expenditures for new facil-
ities such as storage tanks, loading racks, lines and pumps.

-------
Finally, additional crude and adjusted processing conditions
would be required to make up for the gasoline volume lost
by rejecting low-boiling hydrocarbons to other dispositions
and by increasing process severities to compensate for lost
octane quality.

SECTION 2
APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY
An understanding of approach, premises and assump-
tions is important in judging the applicability of the results
and in appreciating the study's inherent limitations. This
section describes the general approach taken by Bonner & Moore
Management Science in estimating the refining costs associated
with gasoline vapor pressure reduction in the United States.
General descriptions are also provided for the major study
premises and assumptions.
2.1	GENERAL APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY
Estimates of the added costs associated with
restricting gasoline volatility were prepared by determining
the increased refining costs in each of three regions of the
U. S., by using these results to estimate costs in two other
regions, and by incorporating results from a recent study
on vapor pressure reduction costs in California^. The three
regions explicitly evaluated in this study are known as
Petroleum Administration for Defense Districts (PADDs) 1, 2
and 3. These three regions, as well as the other two regions
of concern, are mapped in Figure 2-1.

-------
Mathematical (linear programming) models of the
composite refining capability in PADDs 1, 2 and 3 were con-
structed using RPMS, a proprietary Bonner & Moore software
and database system. Each model was run with gasoline vapor
pressure set to correspond to current limits and, subse-
quently, at one and then two pounds per square inch (psi)
reductions from current limitations. Differences in total
refining costs, as determined from these runs, provided the
desired cost estimates for each region modeled.
Results from analyses in these regions are extrap-
olated to national estimates by assuming that per-barrel
costs for reducing gasoline vapor pressure for PADDs 4 and 5
(excluding California) would be the average of costs deter-
mined for PADDs 2 and 3, and by including results from the
aforementioned study for California2.
Three simplfying assumptions were employed to
restrict the scope of the study in order to minimize time and
cost of study completion. These assumptions were:
1) That national cost estimates will be suffi-
ciently accurate if extrapolated from PADDs 1,
2 and 3 results and from the aforementioned
California study.
2) That costs determined for the forecasted situa-
tion in 1990 wJ 11 be indicative of long-range
effects.
SWR-8501
Bonner 6 Moore Management Science

-------
3) That industry-level results will be adequate
for current and preliminary decision-making
with respect to vapor pressure reductions. This
underlying assumption precludes use of study
results for decisions at the sub-regional or
individual refinery levels.
Model study premises are summarized in the following
paragraphs.
2.1.1 Product Demands
All products, except LPG and petroleum coke, were
fixed at forecasted refining output for each region. LPG and
coke were allowed to vary at prices determined from current
market quotations. Forecasts of demands and refinery output
are presented in Appendix A.
2.1.2 Crude Availabilities
Projections of crude supply were allocated to three
classes; namely, low sulfur, high-sulfur and "swing" crudes.
The swing crude was defined as a mix of 40 percent imported
Arabian heavy crude oil and 60 percent imported Arabian light
crude oil. Low-sulfur and high-sulfur mixes were fixed at
projected volumes. The swing crude volume was allowed to
vary as required by overall product output and process energy
requirements. Crude oil supply forecasts are presented in
Appendix B.

-------
2.1.3 Other Raw Materials
Normal butane, iso-butane and natural gasoline volu-
mes were defined on two bases; namely, as maxima based on
recent DOE reporting and as fixed input at the same volumes
defined as maxima. Details are presented in Appendix B.
2.1.4 Refinery Process Configuration
Total capacities of all major processes were imposed
as maximum throughputs for each region. These throughputs
were based on public information representing capacities as
of 1 January 1981 (Oil & Gas Journal, March 26, 1984). Minor
process capacities were allowed to take any required level at
costs representing typical equipment construction. All major
processes except for cat cracking of untreated feeds and
light-oil hydrocracking were allowed to be built at costs
typical of the sizes installed in recent years. Base con-
figuration details are presented in Appendix E.
2.1.5 Economics
All costs and prices were set at first half 1984
values. Crudes were priced FOB the Arabian Gulf plus trans-
portation to the East and Gulf Coasts and to the Great Lakes
from the Gulf Coast. Natural gas liquids were priced accord-
ing to Piatt's quotations for each region. Purchased elec-
trical power was priced according to regional quotations. No
escalation to 1990 was employed, i.e., a constant 1984 dollar
value was employed. Details are presented in Appendix D.

-------
2.1.6 Product Qualities
Except for gasoline, all products were required to
meet current product quality specifications as presented in
Appendix C. Gasoline distillation and octanes were forced to
meet current quality specifications based on the ASTM D 439
schedule (except for unleaded premium gasoline which was
assigned a 93 (R+M)/2 minimum octane rating to reflect recent
trends. Lead content of leaded regular was limited to 0.1
gram/gallon, maximum.
Current summer gasoline vapor pressure was deter-
mined from the ASTM D 439 schedule for seasonal and geographic
volatility classes for the areas supplied by refineries in
each region. This resulted in maximum summer RVP specifica-
tions of 11.50, 11.46 and 11.12 psi, respectively, for PADDs
1, 2 and 3•

2.2	STUDY PARAMETERS AND CASES
Certain assumptions or conditions were subjected to
analysis to determine their effects on the cost of reducing
gasoline vapor pressure.
2.2.1 Natural Gas Liquids Price and Consumption
As noted under the discussion of "other raw material"
premises, two situations were defined for natural gas liquids
(NGLs). These materials, which are produced as by-products of
natural gas processing, were represented in the study models
as purchased normal butane, iso-butane and natural gasoline.
One NGL situation allowed the volume of each NGL to vary up
to a maximum projected availability for each region (see
Appendix B) at prices derived from recent market quotations
(see Appendix D). Cases under this situation are noted as
"open NGL" cases.
Because it would be expected that decreased demand
for NGLs would depress NGL market prices, and because no study
was included to determine the price elasticity of this market,
a second situation was defined in which NGL purchases were
forced to equal projected availabilities. This is equivalent
to reducing prices to levels where refining use would be at a
break-even value. Cases under this situation are noted as
"fixed NGL" cases.

-------
2.2.2 Use of Alcohols as Gasoline Blendstocks
Three kinds of alcohol use were studied. One set of
cases involved blending five volume percent of a one-to-one
mixture of methanol and tertiary-butyl alcohol (TBA) into
each grade of gasoline. Another set of cases involved
blending 7.5 volume percent of a mixture which was 2 parts
methanol and 1 part TBA. The third set of alcohol cases
involved blending 10 percent of gasoline-grade ethanol into
each gasoline grade.* This latter situation was examined
under both NGL situations. Methanol blending was examined
only with NGL purchases left open.
2.2.3 Increased Gasoline Demand
One set of cases, with NGL purchases fixed at fore-
casted levels, was run with gasoline output from each PADD
increased by 10 percent. No other major product demand was
varied.
•Ethanol-containing blends were required to meet finished
gasoline specifications (as were methanol blends) in contrast
to Gasahol which is finished unleaded regular to which 10
percent ethanol has been added, and which is not, therefore,
required to meet volatility restrictions.

-------
2.2.4	Investment Restriction Cases
As stated under "Refinery Process Configuration"
(Paragraph 2.1.U), each region model was equipped to repre-
sent new and expanded capacity additions. To measure the
cost effect of restricting vapor pressure before planning,
engineering and construction could be accomplished, a set of
cases was run which prevented any major process from being
added or expanded above the capacities required by each 1990
case at current summer vapor pressure limits.
2.2.5	Cat Gasoline Octane
Early case results indicated a significant decrease
in the use of catalytic cracking. To test the possibility
that this behavior was caused by a too-low octane quality
assumption for cat gasoline, cases for PADD 3 were run which
reflected an increase of one octane number in cat gasoline
blending values.
2.2.6	Case Run Summary
Table 2-1 identifies the cases examined in terms of
parameter selections, region and RVP level. Note that most,
but not all, combinations of conditions were not included in
this study.

2.3	STUDY LIMITATIONS AND AREAS EXCLUDED
Inherent in the scope, methodology and simplifying
assumptions of this study are limitations in accuracy of
results, in the range of applicability and in the depth of
the analyses performed. Certain limitations are obvious; for
example, costs which may be experienced at specific refin-
eries could be greater or smaller than those measured in this
study. Certain limitations are more subtle; for example,
changes in supply logistics caused by changes in manufac-
turing costs have not been addressed.
Modeling assumptions embodied in the mathematical
depictions of refinery technologies, while of importance, are
secondary to effects caused by study assumptions and premises.
Because these modeling details have been subject to repeated
and nearly continuous scrutiny and improvement during the
course of use in many studies, both private and public, and
because the scope of this study and this document do not call
for review, no further examination of process modeling will
be presented except where pertinent to explaining certain
results.
In addition to the general caution that industry-
level model results do not reflect the extremes of specific
refining situations, there are four other limitations which
should be noted, namely:
1)	Effects of recurring recession or rapid recov-
ery of the U. S. economy are not recognized in
forecasts of crude supply or product demand.
2)	Other than increased gasoline production,
changes in product demand or shifts in product
demand ratios have not been examined.
SWR-8501
Bonner 6 Moore Management Science
2-11

-------
3)	Changes in motor gasoline demand, because of
potential changes in vehicle performance, were
not addressed.
4)	Differences in gasoline or fuel oil grade mix
among regions have been ignored.
Several areas were excluded from this study which
are related to the issue of reduced gasoline volatility or to
study and model premises. These exclusions do not necessarily
imply lack of concern on the part of those involved in this
study or lack of importance. These exclusions are listed
below.
1)	Deviations from assumed economics, e.g., crude
costs, capital costs, or by-product prices have
not been studied.
2)	Major changes in crude supply or product dis-
tribution logistics have not been considered.
3)	Effects of changed gasoline volatility on vehi-
cle performance or on emissions levels were not
examined.
4)	Technology breakthroughs in refinery processes
or in end-use of fuels were not considered.
5)	Measures other than Reid Vapor Pressure for
controlling gasoline volatility {e.g., front-
end volatility index) were not considered.
6)	Consequential changes in refinery emissions have
not been considered.

7)	A future limit of 0.1 gram/gallon maximum lead
alkyl was imposed on leaded gasoline. No
assessment of vapor pressure control costs at
other lead alkyl limits was made.
8)	This study assumed enough alcohol, of each
type, would be available for inclusion at the
prescribed concentrations in all gasolines. No
attempt was made to determine how such alcohol
might be supplied or the price at which it
would be made available because this study is
not concerned with the economics of alcohol
blending.
9) Although it is theoretically possible to
restrict summer vapor pressure on only that
gasoline sold in critical metropolitan areas,
this study does not address the potential lower
manufacturing costs or the higher segregation
and distribution costs of doing so.
10) If added refining costs were passed	to the con-
sumer, increased prices at the	pump could
decrease demand. No analysis of	changes in
gasoline demand was attempted.

SECTION 3
SUMMARY OF RESULTS
This section summarizes and analyzes the results
obtained from this study. Detailed results from which these
summaries have been prepared are presented in Section 4.
Supporting material is provided in the appendices to this
report.
All results are based on forecasted product demands
and crude supplies for the year 1990. Economics are based on
prices for the first half of 1984 and constant (non-inflated)
1984 dollar values. Refinery output to satisfy projected
demands is based on historical distribution patterns, for
example, Gulf Coast refineries (PADD 3) are assumed to con-
tinue to supply large volumes of products to the East Coast.
The several volatility requirements imposed on each
regional model represent the volumetric weighting of volatil-
ity requirements for gasolines to each region supplied from
a given refining center. Table 3-1 shows the EVP maxima using
the current ASTM D 439 schedule and the maxima with one-psi
and two-psi decreases for the three regions studied.

These limits were applied to each of the three gaso-
line grades depicted in each model, namely, unleaded pre-
mium, unleaded regular, and leaded regular. All other
quality limits (see Appendix C) were unchanged from case to
case.
3.1	NATIONAL AND REGIONAL ESTIMATED COSTS
As described in Section 2.1, extrapolation of
regional cost estimates was necessary because PADDs 4 and 5
were not included in this study. By assuming that the average
cost (per barrel) for PADDs 2 and 3 is a reasonable estimate
for refining costs in PADDs 4 and 5, excluding those in
California, and by using results of a similar study for that
state2, national refining costs for vapor pressure control
have been estimated.

Unlike the present study, that for California did
not allow NGL input to vary. Furthermore, current regulations
in that state limit summer gasolines to 9.0 psi maximum
RVP. Since this is already more restrictive than would be
required under the current ASTM schedule, it is not clear
that national restrictions would affect California. Thus,
national estimates have been prepared with and without costs
for California's control.

Table 3-2 presents per-barrel refining costs for
reducing allowable maximum RVP. National costs are estimated
with and without reduction costs for California. Estimates
are shown with open and fixed NGL purchases. These results

3.1.2 Effects On NGL Refining Values
It is apparent from results in Table 3-2 that costs
for the two NGL situations are similar. Incremental values
of NGLs, however, vary considerably in these two situations.
This is illustrated by tabulation of incremental NGL values
presented in Table 3-3.
As can be seen, forcing NGL purchases decreases the
incremental values of individual NGLs. In general, restrict-
ing vapor pressure limits reduces the value of individual
NGLs. Exceptions, primarily in PADD 2 results, are the con-
sequences of changes in operating conditions and shifts in
the NGL limits which are restricting purchases from one RVP
level to the next.
It should be noted that as "incremental" values, the
results in Table 3-3 apply, at best, to small volumes of
these raw materials and are, therefore, useful only as indi-
cators of pressure to change market prices. They should not
be interpreted as predictions of potential market prices
which might arise from future situations. What is shown, by
Table 3-2, is the fact that relatively large changes in NGL
prices would have small effects on the cost of vapor pressure
control.
The fixed-NGL cases provide an answer to the ques-
tion, "How low must NGL prices be to provide economic incen-
tive for using the base-case volumes of NGL?" These derived
NGL refining values may be lower than some alternative
consumer could afford to pay and, thus, they ignore the
possibility that the refiner might discontinue use of these
raw materials. They do, however, provide a lower limit
estimate of NGL prices and the case results reflect the cost
of vapor pressure control when refining must dispose of these
(low cost) potential gasoline components.

3.1.3 Estimated Annual Costs
When applied to the volumes of gasoline forecast for
each region, for a 92-day summer period, the costs in Table
3-2 produce estimated annual costs ranging from $131 million
to $386 million. Table 3-4 shows the development of these
costs. As noted earlier, the cost effect of forcing NGL
purchases is relatively small.
3.1.4 Effect on Raw Material Requirements
Changes in crude oil requirements account for most
of the costs for reducing gasoline vapor pressure. Costs
associated with capital investments and changes in operating
costs {less credits for by-products) account for the rest.
Table 3-5 presents the changes in raw materials (crude plus
NGLs) indicated from model results. As shown by the dif-
ferences between values with open and fixed NGL purchases,
changes in NGL input are small except in PADD 2*. Using
$30.00 per barrel (approximately the average price for swing
crude) for national crude costs, the national annual crude
cost for a 2 psi reduction in RVP (fixed NGL purchase) would
be approximately $308 million, including California, or $259
million, excluding California. This represents 80 percent of
the total refining cost estimate shown in Table 3-4.
•PADD 2 model results consistently showed a surplus of low-
boiling streams relative to gasoline demand. This suggests
that crude type and/or gasoline yield would be shifted from
those assumed in study forecasts by changing crude and pro-
duct logistics.

3.1.5 Effect On Investment Requirements
After accounting for raw material costs, investment-
related costs are the major part of vapor pressure control
costs. Amortization, cost of capital, maintenance, insur-
ance, local and federal taxes and cost of manpower are those
associated with investment in new and expanded facilities.
For purposes of this summary, the changes in investment
requirements (rather than the associated costs of supporting
the investment) have been prepared and are presented in Table
3-6.
Minimization of costs in the solution to each case
represents a balance of capital costs, operating costs and
raw material costs. Each refining situation would dictate a
unique balance of its costs which would not necessarily match
the balances achieved by the model solutions of this study.
Thus, the added capital requirements shown in Table 3-6 must
be viewed as indicative since actual needs could vary widely
from those estimated in this study.
A further qualification of added investment results
must be recognized. As noted in the discussion of model prem-
ises in Section 2.1, major as well as auxiliary process
investment options were allowed as needed above January 1 ,
1984, process capabilities. Differences in process invest-
ments between a base-RVP and lower-RVP case can and do
reflect, for certain processing, lower capacity-additions in
the low-RVP case than required in the base-RVP case.

Restated, this is the consequence of the optimal configura-
tion for the low-RVP case not requiring more of every type of
process than would be required in optimal configuration for
the base-RVP case*.
3.2	PARAMETER EFFECTS
Effects of changes to certain premises on the costs
of reducing RVP were examined in this study. One set of
changes represents use of various alcohols as gasoline
constituents. One change examines the effect of increased
gasoline demand. Another examines the effect of not allowing
capital investment beyond that justified for the 1990 era
without RVP restriction. Finally, one set of cases was run
to confirm that observed changes in utilization of catalytic
cracking were not caused by inappropriate blending values
assumed for cat gasolines.
Each of these parameter studies was restricted to
some, but not all, combinations of RVP reduction and region.
Because of missing evaluations, effects on national costs can
only be assumed to approximate the same percentage change
observed for a given PADD.
•High-severity reforming is the most notable major process
that was needed to a lesser extent in low-RVP cases compared
to its need in base-RVP case3.

3.2.1 Methanol-TBA Cases
All cases involving methanol-TBA blends were run
with NGL purchases open. Two types of methanol-TBA mixes were
examined. Eight cases examined the effect of using 5 volume-
percent of a one-to-one mix of methanol-TBA. Two cases were
run to examine the effect of a two-to-one mix at 7.5 volume-
percent. All gasoline grades were formulated with the same
specified alcohol content.
Table 3-7 summarizes the results from the one-to-one
methanol-TBA cases. Costs of reducing vapor pressure when
this mix of methanol-TBA is blended into all gasolines are
50, 20 and 40 percent above those for no-alcohol cases for
PADDs 1, 2 and 3, respectively. These percentages weighted
by the relative volumes of gasoline from each region indicate
that national costs for vapor pressure reduction would be
approximately 34 percent greater if all gasolines were
blended with 5 percent methanol-TBA. As shown by the added
raw material and added investment results in Table 3-7, both
of these factors are more costly if vapor pressure restric-
tions are imposed in a 1—to — 1 methanol-TBA environment.
Cases for PADD 3 with 1 psi and 3 psi reduction in
maximum RVP were run to identify costs effects with methanol
and a need to further restrict RVP. The reason for such
further restriction might arise as means of compensating for
the fact that vehicle operators could produce a high-vapor-
pressure mixture in their fuel tanks by adding a non-alcohol
gasoline to a partial tank of alcohol-containing gasoline,
or vice versa. Because of the non-linear blending behavior
of alcohol-hydrocarbon mixtures with respect to volatility
characteristics, such occurrences would result in vehicle

fuel tanks containing a mixture that exceeds RVP limits even
though both the alcohol-containing and non-alcohol gasolines
were at, or slightly below, the allowable maximum.
In an environment where gasoline with and without
methanol-TBA would be available, it could conceivably become
required to blend all gasolines to a lower base RVP to over-
come the above-described problem. Further reduction in RVP
to combat evaporative emissions would then take place from a
lower base RVP. The differences in costs between 3-psi and
1-psi reduction represents the RVP-reduction (of 2-psi) costs
from a lower base. From Table 3-7, the 3-to-1 difference of
$0,849 per barrel for PADD 3 is a significantly larger cost
for a 2 psi reduction than the $0,692 per barrel cost shown
for a 2 psi reduction from base RVP. This illustrates the
fact that a given reduction in RVP is more costly for low
base levels, than from a higher base level.
Cases with 2-to-1 methanol-TBA were evaluated only
for PADD 3. Table 3-8, therefore, presents a comparison of
like results from standard-premise and 1-to-l methanol-TBA
cases. As can be seen, vapor pressure costs for gasoline
with alcohol are greater than those with alcohol-free blends.
The larger concentration of the 2-to-1 mix, even though more
methanol is involved, results in lower costs because the
vapor-pressure blending value of this alcohol mixture (at the
higher concentration) is lower than that for the 1-to-1 mix
of methanol-TBA (see Appendix F) and because the increased
alcohol concentration means less hydrocarbon base stock is
needed.

3.2.2 Ethanol Cases
Five case-pairs were prepared to measure the cost of
vapor-pressure reduction with 10 volume-percent ethanol.*
Each pair represents case3 at base RVP and at 2 psi reduction.
Two pair (for PADDs 2 and 3) were run with NGL purchases open
and three (for PADDs 1, 2, and 3) with NGL purchases fixed.
In every case with ethanol being blended, vapor-
pressure-reduction costs were zero. The reason is simply
that base-RVP cases all show gasolines being blended well
below maximum RVP. Each grade was limited instead by the
maximum % § 160°F. Table 3-9 presents the predicted RVP of
each gasoline pool for the base-RVP cases run in this study.
*This use of ethanol should not be confused with the practice
of adding ethanol to finished unleaded gasoline to produce
Gasahol. Ethanol-containing blends in this study are required
to meet normal volatility specifications. Gasahol is not.

It appears from these results that lowering the
allowable maximum FVP by 2 psl would impose no restriction to
ethanol-containing gasoline and that base case EVPs would be
well below that restriction.
The explanation of this characteristic of the etha-
nol casess compared to the cases involving other alcohols
depends on the relationships of blending values for vapor
pressure and % § 160°F of each type of alcohol mixture.
These blending values are shown in Table 3-10*. Also shown
In Table 3-10 are the contributions to blend quality of each
type of alcohol, namely, the blending values times their
*Blending values for other properties are shown in Appendix F.

respective concentrations (as volume fractions). Maximum
% § 160°F was defined as 35 volume percent. Maximum base
FVPs were 11.50 to 11.12 psi. Thus, the 1 — to — 1 methanol-TBA
mixture accounts for approximately 2H percent of allowable
RYP and 16 percent of the allowable % § 160°F. Ethanol, on
the other hand, accounts for 13 percent of the maximum RVP
and 63 percent of the maximum % § 160°F.
Without relaxing the maximum limit for % § 160°F,
gasoline blends with ethanol cannot approach current RVP
limits. Unlike the other alcohol cases, this characteristic
of ethanol blends means there would be no need to reduce

3.2.3 No-Investment Cases
Three cases without the ability to invest in new or
expanded facilities for major processes were run to measure
the impact of not having time to plan, engineer and construct
such capacity. Each case assumes that capacity which was
shown to be justified at current RVP limits and with NGL pur-
chases fixed at forecasted availabilities would be in place
and would have to serve for lower RVP limits. Table 3-11 pre-
sents a summary of the results from these cases (W/0) along
with results for cases with (W) investment allowed.

These results indicate that lack of time to adjust
facilities for reduced volatility requirements would increase
costs by 14 percent, 26 percent and 41 percent in PADDs 1, 2
and 3, respectively. Using gasoline output to weight these
increases gives an estimate of 34 percent increase for
national costs. As would be expected, added raw materials
increase even more, namely, 54 percent, 44 percent and 71
percent for PADDs 1, 2 and 3, respectively, and the estimate
of national raw material increase is 61 percent.
Added-investment results require explanation. As
noted in Section 3.1.5, optimal process configurations do
not have all process expansions from base capacities in the
same proportions. As is illustrated by the added investment
results in Table 3-11, this can lead to some subset of proc-
ess expansions being less in one case than in another. In
this particular instance, the process subset termed "major
processes" shows a net smaller investment requirement in the
low-RVP case than in the base-RVP case for PADDs 1 and 2. In
addition, Table 3-11 shows that auxiliary process investments
can be larger in the no-investment (of major process) situa-
tion than in the situation allowing investments.
It is important, in this context, to recognize that
auxiliary process investments should be classed as operating
costs. Further, it should be recognized that defining cer-
tain processes (e.g., sulfur recovery) as auxiliary was some-
what arbitrary, and in retrospect, could have been done to
minimize the apparent anomaly appearing in the above results.

3.2.4 Increased Gasoline Output Case3
Three pairs of cases with NGL purchases fixed and
with gasoline output requirements increased by 10 percent
were run to measure the effect of this change in product
demand on RVP reduction costs. Each pair consisted of a
base-RVP and an RVP-minus-2 case. Results are summarized in
Table 3-12.
Because of the change in divisors which is caused by
increasing gasoline output, Table 3-12 shows measured effects
as per-day and per-barrel-of-gasoline results. For all PADDs,
daily cost for a 2-psi reduction increases. The per-barrel
cost for PADD 1 decreases slightly. The three-PADD increase
in daily refining cost is 11 percent. Thus, a 10 percent
increase in forecasted gasoline demand would be expected to
increase the national refining cost of reducing RVP by 11
percent. The average per-barrel cost, on the other hand,
increases only 1.2 percent with a 10 percent demand Increase.
Added raw material requirements for the 10 percent
increase in gasoline output for these three regions is shown
to be approximately 10,000 barrels per day above that required
to adjust RVP with base case demands. The increase in gaso-
line demand is more easily accommodated by PADDs 1 and 2
(both show a decrease in added raw material requirements
to reduce RVP at higher gasoline output) than by PADD 3.
This is because PADD 1 and 2 gasoline demands are relatively
easier to meet.

aaC3,	Kerosene jet fuel demand for each PADD is
the total jet fuel demand less the naphtha jet fuel
demand.
3) Residual Fuel
The grades of residual fuel represented in this
study are low sulfur (0 to 0.3 weight percent
Sulfur) medium sulfur (0.31 to 1.0 weight percent
Sulfur) and high sulfur (greater the 1.0 weight per-
cent Sulfur). Grade mixes are based on the growth
rates for each grade from a comprehensive study of
nautral gas usage,7 applied to 1983 production of
each grade. This results in a small percentage
increase in the low and medium sulfur grades at the
expense of the high-sulfur grade. Because of pro-
jected increase in total residual fuel demand by
1990, individual grades of residual fuel also show
increases.

The larger added investments shown for PADDs 1 and 2
when gasoline demand is increased are indicative of shifts
in the balance between raw material costs and capital costs.
Total added investment for these regions is approximately $23
million greater for the increased-gasoline cases but its
distribution among the regions is obviously not uniform.
All of these effects must be recognized as small
differences between large numbers. Even though the model
behavior leading to these results, as well as the direction
of change indicated by the results, are understandable and
for the most part consistent with expectations, their limited
accuracy and dependence on study premises and model assump-
tions must be recognized.
3.2.5 Cases with Increased Octane Values for
Cat Gasoline
Unlike the other parameter examinations, which
explored study premises, this particular investigation was
made to confirm that observed model behavior was not the
result of modeling assumptions about the octane blending
values assigned to catalytic gasolines. Details of these
cases are included with other case details in Section 4.
No summary is, however, presented here. Instead, a brief
discussion of the model behavior is provided.
Early model results showed cat cracking capacity to
be utilized at low levels. Recognizing that this was, in
part, caused by the low limit (0.1 gm/gal) on use of lead
alkyl, and that cat gasoline octane values at this low level
were at or below gasoline specifications, it was decided to
SWR-8501
Bonner 6 Moore Management Science
3-23

-------
test the effect of slightly higher blending values. Octane
values of cat gasoline can be controlled to some extent by
feedstock selection and by operating conditions as well as
catalyst type selection. To approximate the possible improve-
ment in blending values that use of this flexibility might
achieve, cases with higher octane blending values for gaso-
lines were run.
Results showed that even lower utilization of cat
cracking capacity was needed when octane values were
increased. The model behavior, for purposes of this study,
was, therefore, judged acceptable.

3-3	CONCLUSIONS
Several important conclusions may be drawn from the
results of this study.
3-3.1 Refiners' Cost for RVP Reduction
Possibly the most important conclusion which may be
drawn from study results is that refiners' cost increase can
be expected to vary according to the severity of the vapor
pressure restriction and among the regions in which the gaso-
lines are processed. Refiners' cost of reducing summer gaso-
line RVP could vary from 0.4 to 2.6 cents per gallon. There
would undoubtedly be variations in the sub-regional areas as
well, although this study did not attempt to measure costs at
this level of detail.
Increased cost of gasoline with RVP restriction
would not necessarily be reflected as increase in pump prices
for gasoline. Costs could be absorbed at any point in the
manufacturing/marketing chain and/or passed on to the con-
sumer. Increased gasoline costs might be masked by other
important influences such as the prices of crude oils or by
an intense competitive situation in a particular area. The
increased cost of manufacturing lower-volatility gasoline is
real, however, and would represent a large cost to the econ-
omy of the U. S. Under the standard premises of this study,
the national costs are estimated to be more than $315 million
during the first year of restriction.

Banner E Moore Management Science
3-25

-------
3.3-2 Natural Gas Liquids (NGL) Effects
A second conclusion is that the results of this
study show that refining costs for restricting RVP are rela-
tively insensitive to the market price of natural gas liquids
(normal butane, iso-butane and natural gasoline). That is,
changes in prevailing prices for natural gas liquids would
not be expected to exert a significant impact on the cost of
reducing vapor pressure.
On the other hand, the converse is not true. NGLs
are currently significant components of gasoline, and regula-
tions reducing the vapor pressure of gasoline will have a
significant effect on the price of natural gas liquids. If
these raw materials cannot be used in gasoline blending,
their decreased value in alternate dispositions (probably as
plant fuel) would depress their market prices.
3•3•3 Using RVP Restrictions For Emissions Control
A third important conclusion has to do with RVP
measurement as a volatility control. This conclusion can
be drawn from the effects of alcohol use on the cost of RVP
reduction. The effect of using RVP alone as a control speci-
cation is seen most clearly in the cases using ethanol as a
blend stock.
The conclusion which can be drawn from these cases
is that controlling RVP alone is probably more costly and
less effective than controlling a combination of vapor pres-
sure and distillation properties. Other studies1 have shown
SWR-8501
Banner £ Moore Management Science
3-26

-------
that Front-End Volatility Index (FEVI)* correlates much more
accurately with evaporative emissions than does RVP alone.
This study defines volatility reduction as RVP
reduction only. The importance of volatility restrictions
other than RVP is emphasized by ethanol case results. Because
of ethanol's effects on % § 160°F, relative to its effects
on RVP, all ethanol blends are limited by the maximum of
35% § 160°F and, at 6 to 8 RVP, are well below the maximum
restriction considered in this study. Using RVP alone as a
means for controlling evaporative emissions limits the flexi-
bility the refiner has in meeting volatility restrictions and
thus would increase the cost of manufacturing gasoline.
Had the study models been given the flexibility of
blending to FEVI limitations rather than RVP limitations
alone, the measured costs for volatility reduction would have
been lower in the non-alcohol cases and higher in the alcohol
cases.
*FEVI = RVP + 0.13 (* § 160° F).

-------
3.4 EFFECT OF SIMPLIFYING ASSUMPTIONS
As constituted, this study was designed to estimate
the refining costs of restricting summer gasoline volatility.
Restrictions were defined as reduction in RVP amounting to
1	psi and 2 psi from limits currently specified by ASTM D 439.
This standard defines regional summer maxima with a range of
9 psi to 11.5 psi. Thus, a 2-psi reduction would require
gasoline blends with RVP specifications from 7 psi to 9.5 psi.
To simplify the study models, for purposes of re-
ducing study cost, all gasolines from a given region were
combined to represent a single volatility grade. This results
in base-case RVPs of 11.50, 11.46 and 11.12 psi for PADDs 1,
2	and 3, respectively—which are at the upper end of the
range of stated ASTM standard. The cost of restricting RVP
is inversely proportional to the base RVP, i.e., reduction
from a base of 10 RVP is more costly than a reduction from a
base of 11 RVP. The simplified models, thus, tend to under-
state the true cost of RVP reduction.
Another simplification tends to overstate the true
cost of RVP reduction. This assumption is that regional
refining output of gasoline would not change if RVP restric-
tions were to cause shifts in regional gasoline costs.
These simplifications (along with others, as
reflected in Section 2.1) introduce a degree of uncertainty
into the estimated costs. Since reduction of maximum vapor
pressure is only one of several alternatives which can be
used for reducing hydrocarbon emissions, it is important to
recognize the uncertainty of results when making comparisons
with costs for other reduction methods.

3.5
ISSUES FOR FURTHER STUDY
Several issues related to this study subject are
topics which deserve further investigation. Important issues
are:
1)	PADDs ^ and 5 Costs
This study estimated costs for RVP reduction in
PADDS 1, 2, and 3* Costs for refining in PADDS 4
and 5 were inferred or drawn from other studies on
the same subject.
2)	Use of Measures Other than RVP
The use of FEVI or similar measures of evapora-
tive tendency should be compared to the use of RVP
as a means of volatility control.
3)	Impact on Product Supply
The restriction of gasoline volatility vill
have an effect on the supply logistics of gasoline
and other petroleum products. This effect should be
examined since it would influence the cost of
restricting gasoline volatility.
4)	Impact on Natural Gas Processing
Restriction of RVP has the potential for major
impact on the natural gas processing industry. The
potential economic impact of reduced refining demand
for NGLs is a cost which was not assessed in this
study, but one that would occur with volatility
restriction.

3-29

-------
5) Impact on Individual Refining Situations
The possible cost extremes associated with
unique refinery problems could vary considerably
from the industry-level estimates derived in this
study. A study of individual refining situations
is, therefore, recommended.

SECTION 4
DETAILED RESULTS
This section contains selected detail for each case
evaluated in this study. As shown earlier in Table 2-1, not
all combinations of region, vapor pressure level and parameter
situations were included. Presentation order and grouping of
case results are based on region first, NGL situation second
and decreasing vapor pressure limits, within a given subordi-
nate parameter situation, third. Such ordering is, of course,
arbitrary and should not be taken to imply relative signifi-
cance .
Results for each case are arranged in groups,
namely, operations detail, gasoline blend detail and result-
differences between reduced-RVP cases and the appropriate
base-RVP case. The latter is always grouped with related
reduced-RVP cases except for low-RVP cases not allowing major
processing investment. The appropriate base-RVP case for the
low-RVP-no-investment cases is always the left-most (standard
premises) case in tables containing the no-investment result.
For cases involving alcohols, gasoline volumes
represent only the hydrocarbon portion of finished blends.
This is because it was convenient to model the fixed alcohol
content of each situation by adjusting gasoline specifica-
tions and volume demands as if refining produced gasoline
which, when the appropriate alcohol is added, would satisfy
finished quality and volume requirements. Predicted gasoline
grade and pool qualities shown under blend detail results
are, however, those for the finished fuels including the
appropriate alcohol.

APPENDIX A
PRODUCT DEMAND FORECASTS
Appendix A presents the forecasts of petroleum pro-
duct demands used in this study. Forecasts were developed as
a review and update of a forecast prepared for an earlier
study1. This forecast is based on four general assumptions
and six premises relating to specific products. The four
general assumptions are:
1)	U.S. GNP is assumed to grow at 3.5 percent per
year through the 1980s.
2)	Continued conservation will hold growth of
energy consumption to 1.6 percent per year.
3)	Petroleum-based fuels will provide a large but
declining part of energy supply. From a
current percentage of 43, petroleum supply will
decrease to 36 percent of total energy satis-
faction by 2000.
4)	Crude oil prices will drop slightly in terms of
real dollar value through the 1980s.
Certain premises have been used in forecasting
demands for individual products. These are:
1) Gasoline consumption will decline at a slower
rate than predicted in forecasts made in the
preceding three to four years. Slower develop-
ment, than first expected, of the penetration
SWR-8501
Banner C Moore Management Science

-------
of diesel-powered vehicles into new car sales
is the main reason for this less rapid decline.
Another factor is a lower than projected vehi-
cular fuel economy of the new car mix. This
forecast is based on diesel penetration amount-
ing to five percent of new car sales by 1990.
The recent trend toward larger, more powerful,
more spacious cars will reduce the mile-per-
gallon assumptions of earlier forecasts.
2)	Demand projections for aviation turbine fuel
has been taken from a recent forecast con-
centrating on middle distillate fuels2,
3)	Distillate fuels, i.e. diesel fuel and heating
oil, demand will grow at a rate of 1.5 percent
per year. Growth will occur because of the
addition of diesel-powered cars and trucks to
the automotive population. Heating oil for
both residential and commercial consumption is
assumed to decline during the forecast period.
4)	Residual fuel oil demand is projected to
increase through 1990. Between 1985 and 1990,
growth is assumed to be 3.9 percent per year,
with a slight decline thereafter. Potential
demand variation for utility boiler fuel, in
dual-fired boilers, is approximately two
million barrels per day of fuel oil equivalent.
With the deregulation of natural gas price,
stable crude prices, surplus refining capacity
and the trend toward heavier crude supply, it
is expected that the balance between fuel oil
and natural gas use will swing toward fuel oil.
SWR-8501
Bonner 6 Moore Management Science
A-3

-------
Further, assuming no new projects for nuclear
power facilities and with current projects
being held up, utility power supply from
nuclear plants will be lower than assumed in
earlier forecasts. It is expected that this
shortfall will be made up by a combination of
coal-fired and dual-fired boilers in the near
term and by coal-fired boilers in the longer
term.
Automotive lube oil demand is assumed to be
level through the forecast period. Industrial
lube oil demand may grow slightly. Asphalt
demand should grow during the period of the
late 1980s in response to construction and road
repair activities.
Miscellaneous products include specialty
naphthas, petrochemical feedstocks (naphthas
and light ends) and other products
(petrolatums, associated oils, ramjet and
rocket fuels, SNG feeds, etc.). Petrochemical
feedstock demand is expected to grow at a
modest rate of 2.4 percent per year. Other
miscellaneous products are assumed to be level
throughout the forecast period.

7) Demand for petroleum coke* will continue to be
much lower than production. Excess production
competes with high-sulfur coal domestically
and abroad. Current and planned processing to
accommodate heavy crude may be more than ade-
quate, depending on residual fuel oil demand.
There is a large potential market for petroleum
coke as a fuel and over-supply offers signifi-
cant incentives for its development. Projec-
tions for coke in this forecast assume a growth
based on use of installed and announced coking
capacity.
National forecasts, developed for this study, are
presented in Table A-1. Also shown are 1983 actual consump-
tions of refined products and two 1984 forecasts from other
sources for comparison.
Distribution of this national forecast among the
five PADDs is based on maintaining the same proportions of
each product demand as represented in the earlier referenced
study. Product demands forecasted for each region are shown
in Table A-2.
•Catalyst coke is consumed in the cat cracking process and
is, therefore, not considered marketable and is not repre-
sented in the coke demands of this forecast.

The location and capacity of major refining centers
are such that satisfying regional demands involves inter-
regional product movements. Most of these movements are by
pipeline, some are by tanker and barge and a lesser amount
is moved by tank car and tank truck. Some product supply,
particularly to PADD 1, is via import from Caribbean sources.
Traditional movements among PADDs have been influenced
more recently by refinery shutdowns. For this study, the
projected inter-PADD movements were taken from two recent
studies6,7 and revised to account for the most recent refin-
ery closures. Because it appears likely that further refin-
ery closures will, if needed, involve PADD 1, previous
inter-PADD movements have been revised to reflect more
movements from PADD 3 to PADD 1. Application of estimated
inter-PADD movements leads to the refinery output requirements
shown in Table A-3. In addition to the forecasts of refinery
output requirements, Table A-3 also shows 1983 actual refining
supplies for each PADD.
Neither the demand projections shown in Table A-2
nor the refinery output requirements shown in Table A-3
include LPG. Although refineries produce this fuel, only a
minor part of that output is produced from refinery proc-
esses. The major part must, therefore, be brought in with
other raw materials such as natural gas liquids and even with
crude oils. LPG actually produced in refining is a by-product
since process operating decisions are rarely, if ever, made
on the basis of adjusting production of LPG.

Petroleum coke is also a refinery by-product, except in those
cases where its quality and location permit its use in non-
fuel applications such as anode and electrode manufacture.
Coke is also produced and consumed in the cat cracking proc-
ess. As shown in Tables A-2 and A-3, coke volume is based
on a fuel-oil-equivalent as a means of representing coke out-
put volumetrically. No attempt has been made to identify
that part of the petroleum coke which goes to non-fuel uses.
Only marketable coke is represented in the figures shown in
these tables. Because a significant portion of coke produc-
tion is by-product, the forecast figures really constitute
estimates of consequential production, not demands.
Table A-4 shows the grade mixes used for major pro-
ducts, namely, motor gasoline, jet fuels and residual fuel.
1)	Motor Gasoline
The motor gasoline grade mix is based on a
recent forecast developed by E. I. du Pont de
Nemours & Co.® The projected 1990 split of leaded-
to-unleaded gasoline corresponded to a forecast
developed by Bonner 4 Moore for use in an alcohol
study for the U.S. Department of Energy.9 This
gasoline grade split was applied to each PADD.
2)	Jet Fuel
The jet fuel grade mix is based on a recent
forecast of naphtha and kerosene jet fuels.2 The
allocation of the total U. S. naphtha jet produced
to each PADD is based on 1981 through 1983 actual

Hie grades or residual fuel represented in this
study are low sulfur CO to 0.3 weight percent
Sulfur) medium sulfur (0.31 to 1.G weight percent
Sulfur) and high sulfur (greater the 1.0 weight per-
cent Sulfur). Grade mixes are based on the growth
rates for each grade from a comprehensive study of
nautral gas usage,7 applied to 19^3 production of
each grade. This results in a Small percentage
increase in the low and medium sulfur grade3 at the
expense of the high-sulfur grade. Because of pro-
jected increase in total resiiaal fuel demand by
7990, individual grades o? residual fuel also snow
increases.

APPENDIX B
PROJECTED CRUDE AND NGL SUPPLY
Appendix B provides projections of crude oil and
other raw materials supply employed in this study.
B.1	CRUDE SUPPLY
Production of crude oil and lease condensate in the
United States is expected to decline throughout the remainder
of the decade, from 8.7 million barrels/day in 1983 to 7.5
million barrels/day In 1990- Since product demand is"
expected to increase slightly through 1990, imported crude
oil must increase from the 1983 level of 3 million barrels/
day. Because of the expected oversupply of world crude oils
of all qualities through the rest of the decade, however,
increased crude oil imports should not cause the 1°-to-2°
API gravity reduction in crude that some forecasters have
di cted.
Table B-1 shows projected 1990 crude slates for
PADDs 1, 2 and 3-~ The crude charge to each PADD, by source,
was developed using the Jensen/Bonner 4 Moore Study1 and
by modifying some of its assumptions to reflect changed
conditions. The methodology used was to project the amount
of crude available from each source through 1990 and then to
allocate this crude to each PADD based on historical patterns
modified by changing conditions of refining capacity and
product demands. Saudi Arabian crude was used as the supple-
mental (swingj crude.

Typical crudes, from the Bonner & Moore assay
library2t were selected to represent sources of crude oil.
For foreign sources, major export crudes from the particular
area were selected. To confirm these selections, these
representative crudes were used with the 1983 actual volumes
of crudes, by source, to each PADD and a volumetric average
API gravity and weight percent sulfur were determined. These
averages were compared to the actual average API gravity
and weight percent sulfur of crude charge reported in the
DOE "Petroleum Supply Annual." Adjustments were made, as
necessary.
Table B-2 contains a comparison of the reported 1983
crude gravities and sulfur contents for each PADD with those
calculated from the crude slates shown in Table B-1. The"
composite crude quality of the three PADDs is projected to be
heavier and contain more sulfur than current crude slates but
not to the degree anticipated by others. The quality changes
in PADDs 1 and 2 are slight whereas the major deterioration
of quality appears to be in PADD 3« Current refinery process
trends are anticipating and, in a way, directing this trend.
The majority of topping refineries and hydroskimming refin-
eries in PADD 3 needing the lower-sulfur-content and lower-
gravity crudes have been shut down. Complex refineries
have been modified by investments in bottom-of-the-barrel
upgrading and in desulfurization processes to accommodate
heavy crudes such as Mayan. During the past two years, refin-
ery shutdowns in PADD 2 represent an 18 percent decrease in
refining capacity. In PADD 1, 17 percent of refining capa-
city has been shut down. Very little process investment has
been announced for the existing refineries in PADDS 1 and 2.

APPENDIX C
PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
The specifications used for those products modeled
to meet quality restrictions are shown in Table C-1. In
addition, LPG was modeled to compositional specification of
maximum 5 volume-percent olefins and 2.5 percent butanes.
All other produts, such as lubes, asphalts, and specialty
naphthas were modeled as recipe blends.
The specifications, with the exception of those enu-
merated below are those in the Refinery and Petrochemical
Modeling System (RPMS) library. These RPMS specifications
are routinely reviewed and updated to be representative of
current industry requirements. The specifications were not
varied by PADD nor varied for seasonality.
The Road Octane specification, (R+M)/2, for leaded
regular and unleaded regular gasolines are ASTM D 439 speci-
fications. The unleaded premium (R+M)/2 is an average from
recent announcements by various marketers1.
Gasoline volatility specification for percent dis-
tilled at 160°, 210°, 230° and 330° Fahrenheit were derived
from considerations involving historical gasoline quality
surveys2 an(j from ASTM D 439 standards using the average
of B and C volatility classes. It should be noted that
ASTM D 439 schedules for various volatility classes describe
distillation controls in terms of minimum and maximum temper-
atures at specified percents distilled. Representing such
limits in mathematical models is usually done by transposing
temperature limits at specified distillation points to dis-
tillation limits at specified temperatures. Blending data

in RPMS and the corresponding distillation specifications are
based on temperatures covering normally expected 10, 50 and 90
percentage points, namely, 160°, 210°, 230° and 330°F. The
160°F temperature was chosen because it is approximately
equal to 158°F (70°C) which is frequently used to control
"front-end" volatility and a3 part of the relationship termed
Vapor Lock Index (VLI), also termed Front-End Volatility Index
(FEVI). The expression for this relationship is:
VLI = RVP + 0.13 (* § 158°F)
It is used by some refiners to approximate control of 20 V/L
temperature, a test which relates to vapor lock tendency. It
is not, however, certain that all gasolines are produced to a
20 V/L temperature limit. In the absence of a VLI limitation,
a maximum if 35 percent was imposed at 160°F to prevent exces-
sively high percentages.
Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP) specification, being the
subject specification of the study, was varied by PADD.
Table C-2 shows the RVP specifications used for base and
reduced volatility. Base-case RVP specification were derived
using the volatility classes from ASTM D *139 for the months
of June, July and August. The ASTM standard defines permitted
volatility classes by State, by month. Class A is a maximum
RVP of 9, Class B is a maximum of 10, and Class C is a maxi-
mum of 11.5. Based on the gasoline volumes to each location,
a weighted average was developed of the RVP specification for
refinery production in each PADD by accounting for the
inter-PADD movements of gasoline.

Veight-percent-sulfur specifications for No. 6 Fuel
Oils were set co represent the fuel oil production grouping
in the DOE "Petroleum Annual Statement." Low-sulfur fuel oil
with a specification of 0.3 weight percent sulfur, represents
the 0-to-.3 weight-percent grouping. Medium-sulfur fuel oil,
with a weight percent sulfur of 0.7 represents the .3-to-1.0
weight-percent grouping. The 0.7 level was used rather than
1.0 since most of the fuel oil in this group is produced at
0.5 and 0.7 sulfur levels. High-sulfur fuel oil was given a
specification of 2.8 weight-percent sulfur.

APPENDIX D
ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL FACTORS
All costs and prices employed in this study were set
at current 1984 values. No inflation to 1990 was employed,
i.e., a constant dollar value was assumed. This assumption
is not material to the results since results are based on
comparisons between cases.
Prices for major products and the base crude slate
were not needed since the quantities were fixed at forecast
levels. Prices for swing crudes, normal and iso-butane,
natural gasoline, LPG, coke and sulfur were, however,
required and the values used are displayed in Table D-1.
Swing crude prices are based on current posted
prices, FOB Ras Tanura, pjus transportation costs to New
York, Chicago and Houston representing PADDs 1, 2 and 3,
respectively, Normal butane, iso-butane and natural gasoline
prices for PADD 3 were based on the average of spot Mont
Belvieu prices quoted in Piatt's Oilgram, for the first
quarter of 1984. Prices for PADDs 1 and 2 were determined
using transportation cost estimates to Philadelphia and
Chicago, respectively. LPG prices were similarly developed
but adjusted higher by $0.#0/barrel to be consistent with
fuel oil costs derived from the swing crude. Coke prices
were taken from the study of vapor pressure reduction in
California^ and assumed to b«: constant for all PADDs. Sulfur
prices were obtained from the Chemical Marketing Reporter,
for Houston and Tampa Bay, through the first quarter of 1984.

The Refinery and Petrochemical Modeling System
(RPMS), a proprietary Bonner 4 Moore system, generates proc-
ess operating costs based on utility consumption factors
multiplied by utility costs. Fuel and steam costs to all
processes are based on crude costs plus investment and oper-
ating costs for utility supply facilities. Cooling water
costs are based on zero-cost raw water plus the investment
and operating costs of cooling and pumping facilities. Elec-
tric power was assumed to be purchased in all cases rather
than internally generated. Power costs were obtained from
Electric Power Monthly using regional quotations representing
each PADD.
RPMS process data include 1982 catalyst and chemi-
cal costs for each process. These 1982 costs were converted
to 1984 values using the Nelson Cost Index for chemicals of
1.026.
Capital requirements for new and expanded capacity
were derived from investment-versus-capacity relationships*
for each process using process sizes consistent with recent
industry activities. Thus capacity costs are based on typi-
cal process capacities.
The cost of supporting investments for typical facil-
ities was determined by applying a capital recovery factor
derived from the factors shown in Table D-2.

Aziotropes formed by blends of alcohols and hydro-
carbons result in non-linear blending characteristics for
predicting quality of such blends. In this study, alcohol
addition was fixed at predetermined concentrations for each
alcohol mix. It is, therefore, possible to define the
apparent linear blending values for each alcohol mix and to
avoid the problems of non-linear representation.
Table F-1 presents the blending values employed for
each of the three alcohol mixes included in this study.
