摘要
未来充满了不确定性，石油天然气工业正是如此。我们不可能确定碳氢化合物将来的储备，以及是否能满足未来能源的需求。我们不知道明天的炼油厂将变成什么模样，但我们能充满信心地预知一些设想和理念，它们将描绘出未来炼厂的样子。上述内容我们将在本期《石油天然气》中着重介绍。

We do not know what the refineries of tomorrow will look like, but we can predict with some confidence a few of the ideas that will shape them. In this issue of Oil ＆ Cos Technology our lead feature looks at these.
