Bukhara Refinery to Increase Processing Capacity to 5 Million Tonnes
Following a $328 million modernization, the refinery is expected to double its annual raw material processing capacity
The project envisages increasing the annual volume of raw material processing to 5 million tonnes, deeper processing of heavy residues and the modernization of fractionation.
The facility will also receive units for hydrotreating and naphtha isomerization. This will make it possible to increase the output of AI-92 and AI-95 gasoline meeting the Euro-5 standard.
During his visit to the refinery, President Shavkat Mirziyoyev instructed officials to meet the modernization deadlines, ensure the quality of the work, coordinate the new equipment with the existing processes and maintain the facility’s stable operation during the upgrade.
