Gazprom Neft Mulls Omsk

By The Moscow Times

Gazprom Neft said Wednesday it is considering building a hydrocracker at its refinery in Omsk, enabling its largest oil-processing plant to produce more premium and ecologically cleaner products, including diesel and jet fuel.

“By July we shall give a definite ‘yes’ or ‘no’ on the hydrocracker,” Alexander Meling, the head of the refinery, said at the World Refining Association conference in Barcelona.
