It is estimated that Russia’s total primary oil refining capacity idled by the drone strike has dropped to 90,500 tons per day (660,000 bpd) from about 123,800 tons per day (907,000 bpd) previously.
It was known after the plant was hit on April 2 Taneko, there were no reports of successful attacks on major Russian oil refineries. Russia is rapidly rebuilding its oil refineries despite difficulties in acquiring Western technology.
This applies to the Ryazan plant, which returned to operation the CDU-4 main oil refining unit and the CDU-6 main unit. Also, the units of the Kuibyshev Refinery, which repair CDU-4, the unit CDU-5, and the unit CDU-6, which were previously stopped for maintenance, were returned to operation.
Overall, however, the total capacity of Russia’s main oil refineries, which are out of service due to various shutdowns and maintenance, is expected to be 4.4 million tons in April, up from 4.1 million tons in March.
We remind you that since the beginning of the year, more than 13 Russian refineries have been attacked. The drone attack led to the biggest weekly increase in oil prices of the year.
The United States has called on Ukraine to stop attacks on Russian energy infrastructure, as drone strikes on refineries could lead to an increase in world oil prices.
