The Syzran refinery has completely halted oil processing after a July 12 strike damaged its AVT-5 unit with a capacity of 7,100 tonnes per day. Another unit was already shut down on May 21. The plant's annual capacity is 8.5 million tonnes.

The Strike Damage

The AVT-5 unit, with a daily capacity of 7,100 tonnes, was knocked out by a strike on July 12. Repairs may last until the end of July, according to Arbat Media. The second unit had been idle since May 21.

Plant Capacity

The Syzran refinery has a design capacity of 8.5 million tonnes of oil per year. With both units offline, the plant is unable to process crude. The outage reduces Russia's refining capacity.
