The Yaroslavl Refinery (Russian: Ярославнефтеоргсинтез) is an oil refinery plant in the Russian city of Yaroslavl, one of the largest in the country. This refinery has belonged to the Russian company Slavneft since 2001.
History
In 1952, the Soviet Ministry of Oil Industry selected the city of Yaroslavl as the site for a new oil refinery plant. The plant began operations in 1961, and expanded throughout the 60s and 70s.
In 1993, the refinery plant was privatized with the approval from Russian authorities, and soon became part of Slavneft.[1]
Throughout the 2000s, the company modernized much of the refinery plant, including the catalytic cracking units to boost production. These investments cost around $1.5 billion.[2]
In 2009, the company was estimated to be worth 12.9 billion rubles ($400 million USD).[3]
The main competitors for the refinery plant are: Ryazan Refinery, Kstovo Refinery, and Moscow Refinery.[4]
