MOSCOW (MRC0 -- Clean Russian oil should reach Czech refiner Unipetrol’s Litvinov plant around May 27, reported Reuters with reference to head of the Czech state reserves body Pavel Svagr, who told CTK news agency on Friday.
Shipments of Russian oil through the Druzhba pipeline are being restarted after suspension last month due to contaminated crude in the system.
As MRC wrote earlier, in April 2019, Unipetrol trusted its engineering, procurement and construction management (EPCM) contract to McDermott International for its Litvinov refinery in Czech Republic. Under the contract, McDermott will be responsible to provide EPCM services for the upgrade of a hydrocracking unit at the Litvinov refinery.
Unipetrol , a.s. is a group of companies operating in the petrochemical industry in the Czech Republic. In 2005 Unipetrol became a part of the PKN ORLEN Group, the largest oil processor in Central Europe.
