The Tuapse Refinery (Russian: Туапсинский нефтеперерабатывающий завод) is an oil refinery in the Russian city of Tuapse. It has belonged to the Russian state-owned company Rosneft since 1992.
In 1929, construction of the refinery finished and it began operation. Much of the oil originated in Soviet Chechnya at the time.
In 1992, Russian president Boris Yeltsin decreed that the refinery would belong to the state-owned Rosneft.
In October 2013, a new unit at the refinery began service to expand the production capacity.[1] In 2014, six new hydrocracking units were introduced, and the products would fulfill European emission standards.[2] A similar unit was introduced in February 2015, which produces diesel fuel based on European standards.[3]
During the Russo-Ukrainian War, the Ukrainian military conducted numerous attacks on Russian targets, especially oil refineries. The Tuapse refinery was struck on January 25, 2024,[4] and again on May 17.[5] The refinery had to cease operations after the January 2024 attack.[6]
