TNK-BP reports that it will invest over $60 mln in the construction of a hydrocarbons sulfur removal facility at CJSC Ryazan Oil Refinery Company (RORC, part of the TNK-BP Group). The facility is planned to be commissioned in 2015.

"TNK-BP continuously improves the efficiency and the environmental production profile. The construction of this facility is part of a long-term program to upgrade all Company refining assets, with total investments of $2.5 bn during the 2012-2015 period," notes Anatoly Skoromets, General Director, RORC.
