VISION
Our passion is to attain distinctive leadership amongst the corporate success
stories of tomorrow.
CORE VALUES
Following concepts and ideas guide the Management and Staff of National Refinery Limited
in conducting its business practices in most ethical ways:
4. Continuous improvement
We generate new ideas and creative approaches to upgrade and update our refinery
to best available technology and processes so that our products are at the level of
internationally accepted standards.
5. Profitability
We believe in enhancing our profitability to the maximum so that Employees, Shareholders
and Government all benefit from it.
6. Corporate Citizenship
As a good Corporate Citizen, we are more than willing and happy to meet our social
responsibilities towards the community around us. We are also committed to meet
requirements of health, safety and environment.
There are four units in Special Projects, Naphtha, Sulphur Block, HPU/DHT and Utilities.
4. Utilities (313, 314, 316, 375, 376, 377, 378, 379, 380, 381, 570)
National Refinery utilizes a large number of utilities to support the manufacturing at
production units. The supply of water, steam, fuel and air is the assignment of Utilities
Department. A comprehensive utilities complex exists to meet the refinery’s requirements
of utilities, steam, and condensate, cooling water, instrument/plant air and fuels.
A Turnaround is a scheduled period of non-production within the plant. That means that
day-to-day operations cease completely during the duration of a turnaround and instead
the focus shifts to maintenance related activities, cleaning, inspection, and repair. During
this time the plant’s employees, and often outside contractors, work around the clock to
get everything ready for the plant or unit to resume its regular operations. Speed is of the
essence when it comes to shutdowns because they are extremely expensive in terms of
production lost, increased labor and equipment expenses.
1. Work on equipment which cannot be done unless the whole plant is shutdown;
2. Work which can be done while equipment is in operation but requires a lengthy period of
maintenance work and a large number of maintenance personnel;
3. Upgrading equipment and introducing new technologies to improve speed and efficiency.
TRANSFORMERS
A transformer is a passive component that transfers electrical energy from one electrical
circuit to another circuit through the process of electromagnetic induction. It is most
commonly used to step up or step down voltage levels between circuits.
MAINTENANCE OF TRANSFORMER
Since transformer is very important capital equipment for an industry, therefore its proper
maintenance is very important to allow the transformer for working with its full efficiency.
Following actions are performed during the maintenance of transformer:
1. Checked the oil level of Magnetic oil Gauge of main tank and conservator, found below
the specified level then filled it up to the specified level.
2. Checked the color of silica gel in breather, replaced the silica gel.
3. Checked the leakage of oil from any point of a transformer, leakage is detected then
sealed it.
4. Cleaned the LT/ HT bushings of transformer with only soft cotton cloth.
5. Checked the tripping of Buchholz relay.
6. Checked the tightness of all the terminal connections of LT/HT sides.
7. Checked the resistance of the earthing wire.
8. Checked the insulation resistance with megger.
9. Cleaned the overall transformer properly.
10. Centrifuging is performed to purify the oil of transformer.
TRANSFORMER TESTING
1. Transformer Turns Ratio (TTR)
The transformer turns ratio test is used to make sure that the ratio between the windings of
the primary and secondary coils follow the proper specifications. This test ensures that the
transformer will provide the proper step-up or step down in voltage.

SWITCHGEAR
In an electric power system, switchgear is composed of electrical disconnect
switches, fuses or circuit breakers used to control, protect and isolate electrical equipment.
Switchgear is used both to de-energize equipment to allow work to be done and to
clear faults downstream. This type of equipment is directly linked to the reliability of
the electricity supply.
MAINTENANCE OF SWITCHGEAR
Switchgear power systems are very reliable and rarely need maintenance at all. Because of
their reliable reputation, they also can be the most overlooked element in the whole power
control system. If there does happen to be a problem in the switchgear, it could keep the
whole power grid in question from coming online at all or even worse, damage to
the switchgear power systems could occur.
INDUCTION MOTOR
An induction motor (also known as asynchronous motor) is a commonly used AC electric
motor. In an induction motor the electric current in the rotor needed to produce torque is
obtained via electromagnetic induction from the rotating magnetic field of the stator
winding.
MAINTENANCE OF MOTOR
Motors need maintenance regularly in order to ovoid failure and prolong their lifespan.
Generally speaking, motors and motor parts should be maintained and tested at least every
six months. Only then it is possible to maintain a motor’s life and its efficiency.
