TNK-ВР has completed the reconstruction of diesel fuel hydrotreater in Saratov

TNK-ВР informs that it has completed the reconstruction of L-24-6 – diesel fuel hydrotreater at Saratov Oil Refinery (a part of TNK-BP Group) as part of the large-scale upgrading program of the Company’s refining assets.

The reconstruction of the two-train facility included the replacement of reactors, knockout drums, process equipment and heat exchangers. This has increased L-24-6 capacity almost by 30% to 2,200 thousand tons/year (previously 1,700 thousand tons/year).

“With the hydrotreater, Saratov Oil Refinery can now produce all types of diesel fuel with improved operating and environmental characteristics of Euro-4 and Euro-5 standards”, Vitaly Zuber, Director of TNK-BP Refining Department, said.
