The Kirishi-2 Oil Refinery is Russia's first residual oil high conversion refinery. It was opened in Kirishi, Russia in 2017.[1] It is located on the site of the KINEF refinery.

The Kirishi-2 Oil Refinery has an annual output of 10 million tons. As of 2024 the refinery produced approximately 11 percent of Russia's total output gasoline, 6.4 percent of its diesel fuel, 5.6 percent of fuel oil, and 7.4 percent of its aviation fuel.
The Kirishi-2 refinery is owned by Surgutneftegaz's Kirishinefteorgsintez subsidiary.[4]
The refinery project was managed by Giorgi Ramzaitsev, the chairman of the Board of Directors of ChekSU, a major manganese ore and ferroalloy mining and processing company in Russia,[5] and Andrei Yermolaev, a former member of the Leningrad Regional Legislative Assembly.[6]
On 12 March 2024 the refinery was attacked by Ukrainian drones.[7] [8] [4] Reuters reported that at least half of the refinery's production was halted by the attack.[8]
