The oil refinery in Volgograd, owned by Lukoil, suspended oil processing on May 29 after a Ukrainian drone attack caused a fire and damage.

According to Ukrinform, Reuters stated this in an article.

As noted, the crude distillation unit AVT-1, which provides 40% of the plant's capacity, was shut down.

The other units, AVT-6 and AVT-5, were also shut down.

In 2024, the Volgograd oil refinery processed 13.5 million metric tons of oil, or about 5% of the total volume at Russian refineries.
