PFC Energy's Worldwide Refinery Monitoring Service (WRMS), which has replaced the former Refinery Benchmarking Service (RBS) is a centralized information service for the refining industry. The service covers all refineries worldwide, and may be accessed as a complete service for refinery information and benchmarking across all regions of the world, or on a modular basis, either by region or by category:
At the core of the Worldwide Refinery Monitoring Service is a dynamic database, tracking capacities and shareholding (historical, current and forecast), supported by qualitative analysis, benchmarking indicators, production and profitability data and investment strategies.
The Worldwide Refinery Monitoring Service offers an effective data management system, which allows for easy referencing and benchmarking. All data may also be downloaded into Excel spreadsheets, and integrated with other PFC Energy refining models.
Individual refineries are profiled, with detailed information on location, size, sophistication, complexity and flexibility, level of integration with petrochemicals, supply advantages and more. The service provides detailed information on supply and production, derived from PFC Energy's in-house refining model, including crude basket, modeled production and motor fuels product specifications.
The Worldwide Refinery Monitoring Service also offers refining margins per refinery, with profitability indicators allowing at-a-glance benchmarking. Additional options include asset evaluation services and customized modeling.
