The Russian petrochemical complex Gazprom Neftekhim Salavat in the Urals, one of the largest in the country, shut down on Tuesday following an attack by Ukrainian drones.
According to Ukrinform, Reuters reported this, citing two industry sources.
The sources said that as a result of the attack, both primary oil refining units were damaged and shut down. In addition, some secondary refining units and other process equipment were damaged.
The units in question are the CDU-6 primary crude distillation unit, with a capacity of 17,140 metric tons per day, and the CDU-4 unit, capable of processing up to 11,430 metric tons per day of crude oil and gas condensate, the sources noted.
They added that repairs could take several weeks or even months.
