Kremenchuk Oil Refinery is the largest[1] enterprise for the production of petroleum products in Ukraine. It is located in Kremenchuk,[2] Poltava Oblast.[3] Since 1994 it has been the main branch of PJSC Ukrtatnafta.[4]
On April 3, 2022, Dmytro Lunin, the acting governor of Poltava Oblast announced that the oil refinery has been "completely destroyed" after a Russian attack.[5] In May, the Russians launched at the destroyed refinery four missiles.[6] Yuriy Vitrenko, the CEO of Naftogaz, said at a June 21 press conference "All oil refining in Ukraine is now shut down due to massive repeated attacks" by the Russians.[7]
