Strikes by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Russian oil refineries located at a distance have caused serious damage in a vital sector of Russian industry. The total damage is estimated at approximately 12 percent of the total production volume.
According to a report by the Financial Times, based on data and satellite intelligence analysis from S&P Global, as of July 27, only eight facilities among 26 damaged and closed oil refineries have fully restored operations: the Omsk plant, 'Taneko' in Tatarstan, 'Gazpromneftkhim Salavat' in Bashkortostan, 'Ufa-neftekhim', 'Permnefteorgsintez', Novoufimsky, Ukhtinsky, and Antipovsky plants.
Other facilities are in various states: eleven plants have partially restored production, while seven plants are not operating at all. Among these facilities are 'Kinef' and 'Rosneft' in the Leningrad region, which are considered the second most significant oil refineries in the country, as well as plants in Tuapse, Sizran, Kuibyshev, and Novokuibyshev.
The leaders among the ten largest oil refineries in Russia by production volume—the plants in Ryazan, Nizhny Novgorod, and Volgograd—were only able to restore half their operations, while the Moscow oil refinery was only able to restore one-third of its operations.
