The project to bolster the production capacity and promote the quality of the items produced at Bandar Abbas Oil Refinery dramatically improves the plant’s petrol output.

The project entails a gasoil hydrogen unit, a power generator, nitrogen unit, sour water unit, Amine Contactor, light naphtha unit, and 17 storage tanks, which have all become operational.

The project increases the refinery’s petrol production capacity by 3 ml/d and 70 percent of its output meets Euro-4 standards.

Moreover, commissioning the gasoil hydrogen refining unit of the facility would add 15 million liters per day of Euro-4 gasoil to the plant’s daily production capacity, and the petrol quality of the refinery is expected to meet Euro-4 standards by March.

Before inauguration of the project, the plant supplied 12 ml/d of petrol and was fed by 350,000 b/d of crude oil and gas condensate. It is touted as the third largest oil refinery in Iran.
