According to the results of 2024, oil processing at the refineries of the Russian Federation, taking into account the December dynamics, is expected to be 266.9 million tons – 8.1 million tons lower than in 2023 (-3.2% in daily comparison). The Moscow Times writes about it. This level is the lowest since 2012, when refineries processed 265.4 million tons of raw materials. It is reported that in the period from 2012, Russian oil refining faced an even more significant annual decline: by 15.2 million tons (-5.6%) in the coronavirus year 2020, when refineries processed 270.0 million tons of oil.Advertisement: Reduction in refining of oil at Russian refineries in 2024 compared to 2023, the idleness of primary installations was ensured to the greatest extent at the Tuapsyn Refinery (-5.5 million tons, -59.6%), the Nizhnyhorodnaftorgsintez2 Refinery (-3.4 million tons, -21.8%) and the Novoshakhty ZNP ( -1.5 million tons, -31.4%). drop in commercial motor fuel is produced only by NizhnygorodNOS, so a significant general reduction in the loading of primary processes did not lead to a proportional decrease in fuel production September and October, the Novoshakhty Oil Refinery, which is the largest in southern Russia, stopped both of its primary oil processing facilities due to an attack by Ukrainian drones.
