It is there that they produce a large proportion of the highest quality gasoline, in particular-the 98th. Equipment installed in KSTOV - is truly unique for Russia. As part of a deep modernization 15 years ago, an American complex of catalytic cracking was launched there, which started production of car gasoline standard Euro-4.
This complex is the largest of Russia built in Russia in the last 25 years and, due to the conversion of vacuum gas in the light of petroleum products, provides a significant increase in the production of autobenzyns. The amount of investment in this project was about one billion (!). (All technologies and equipment, of course, western).
In short, this plant is not a carbon monoxide, dirty and heavy Soviet refinery, but an expensive, light, thin, and transparent masterpiece of American engineering art, producing wonderful fuel for billions of dollars. And at night, a dozen drones flew there, which was blown up, torn, destroyed and set on fire. There is no more wonderful plant - the beauty and pride of the Russian oil industry. Accordingly, there will be no tens of billions of dollars from the sale of fuel.
The destruction of this plant will accurately lead to a sharp increase in gasoline prices in the Russian Federation, to huge financial losses for the budget, and even to the increase in inflation - it is so important and great in the context of the Russian economy. My congratulations to those who performed this operation. It is a very serious blow to the Russian military-economic machine.
UPD Почався масований наліт українських БПЛА на Торопецький район Тверської області. There is already burning the oil depot "Tverdnefteproduct" and a weapon arsenal. Explosions are also heard in Smolensk and Kazan.
У Кстово, до речі, почали вибухати ємності з бензином — очевидці повідомляють про потужні вторинні детонації, пожежа стає дедалі сильнішою. UPD1 Vlad says that everything is under control that the fragments of the fallen drone are extinguished.
But in local publications, people write that the fire is getting stronger and many are already running away from the factory, fearing the constant roar of explosions. They also write that the next is Dzerzhinsk. It is the dirtiest city of the Russian Federation, stuffed with chemical plants. If something explodes there, then the poisonous cloud will cover the whole of the Volga region. The author expresses a personal opinion that may not coincide with the editorial position.
