American oil arrives at Belarusian refineries

11 2020 June 11

On June 11, 2020, the Belarusian Novopolotsk Refinery (Naftan OJSC) in the Vitebsk Region began to receive American oil delivered from Klaipeda (Lithuania) by rail. This was stated by spokesman for the Belarusian state concern Belneftekhim Alexander Tishchenko.

American oil has already begun to flow to Naftan (northern Belarus - ed.). At noon, oil began to be drained from the tanks of the train arriving in the morning.

- told Tishchenko RIA News".

It is noted that the arrived train consists of 60 tanks, 17 of which contain the mentioned raw materials. It is clarified that at the same time, the delivery of Arab oil from Klaipeda, which Belarus bought from Saudi Arabia in March 2020, is coming to an end.

At the same time, Tishchenko explained that all purchased American oil will be transported to the specified refinery within the next decade, i.e. 10 days. He added that the company will use the purchased raw materials after the “control procedures”.

We remind you that on June 6, 2020 the tanker delivered 77 thousand tons of Bakken crude oil for Belarus from Lithuania to the USA. The delivery from Texas was supported by Getko (USA) and UNIMOT (Poland).

In addition, Belarus also bought oil from Norway, Azerbaijan, diversifying supplies so as not to depend on Russia. In April 2020, Minsk agreed with Warsaw to pump 100 thousand tons of oil from Polish territory to the Mozyr Oil Refinery in the Gomel Region (southern Belarus).

Despite this, Belarus increased purchases of Russian oil. According to the press secretary (adviser to the president of the company) PJSC Transneft Igor Demin, the Russian oil pipeline company increased oil supplies to Belarus through the Druzhba pipeline in May 2020 to 1,13 million tons, which is 10,8% more than for the same period in 2019 (1,02 million tons).

Interested in the cost of output? It is clear that oil was more expensive than Russian. Accordingly, production from this oil will be much more expensive than from Russian oil. Where to sell these products will be a big question !!!!

It is necessary to crack the long-laid asphalt, where it is no longer needed, in view of the abandoned territories to pull out bitumen, and all that was in URALSA is not in Saudi light oil. Something whispers to me that something needs to be drastically changed so that a decent babakh does not happen, as was the case with our Ukrainian brothers, who tried to stick foreign rods into nuclear reactors. It’s bad when shoemakers start baking cakes. If you - the title of collective farm chairman, then go, spin the tails of the bulls, and do not go into petrochemistry.

  When a shoemaker bakes pies, it’s not scary, worse, when a Ukrainian starts to think that he has brains.

American oil arrives at Belarusian refineries

Congratulations. Perhaps the blending of raw materials will be successful? Now, if moonshine is driven from different products, the finished product will have different taste qualities. But with oil, how? Gasoline, for example, will there be the same output? I would like to hear the opinion of experts.

  A memory like a guppy? Experts have written hundreds of times what, from which oil and at which plant it is produced. In the ass, potato heads with their dad.
