The main goal behind the overhaul has been preparation of the operation units so as to ensure constant and round-the-clock operation of the facility for another four years and supply and procure qualitative oil products. The gestures are hoped to be in line with the lofty goals of the Islamic establishment with resistive economy being the axis.
The overhaul also consisted all towers, transmitters, air fans, water coolers, pipelines, pumps and compressors, electric systems and precision tools, power control stations and flair system.
The overhaul was subsequent to many sessions held by directors and officials of BAORCO. For the purpose, the procedural and executive maps for preparation of goods, items, equipment and machines needing repair had been prepared.
Some 2,000 man/hour had been involved in the repair as 1,000 domestic personnel contributed to the process.
