Industry sources say a major Moscow refinery has stopped crude processing after
a Ukrainian drone strike on September 20 ignited fires in its main distillation
units. Moscow’s mayor said an industrial facility was damaged during the drone
attacks. Three industry sources said drones crashed into the refinery and both
primary crude distillation units burned; repairs and restart could take several
weeks. The two core units are AVT-6, capacity 21,400 tonnes/day (53% of the
plant), and the EURO+ complex, capacity 18,800 tonnes/day (47%), totalling
40,200 tonnes/day of crude processing capacity.
