This unit accounts for about one-third of the plant\u2019s capacity. The oil loading rack was also damaged.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"487\" data-end=\"718\">The refinery, owned by Rosneft and Gazprom, produced 2.6 million tonnes of gasoline, 4 million tonnes of diesel fuel, and 4.7 million tonnes of fuel oil last year. It became the second major refinery to halt production in December.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"720\" data-end=\"1020\">The Telegram channel Astra reports that the Saratov oil refinery also suspended operations following an attack overnight on December 13. The strike damaged an electrical cable, forcing the plant to shut down for several hours. This marked the tenth attack on the facility since the beginning of 2025.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1022\" data-end=\"1158\">The Saratov refinery is one of Russia\u2019s oldest oil-processing facilities, with a processing capacity of 4.8 million tonnes of crude oil.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1160\" data-end=\"1455\">In November, Ukraine\u2019s Armed Forces used drones at least 14 times to strike Russian refineries, setting a new record and surpassing August, when 12 plants were attacked. At least three of them temporarily halted fuel production, including the Ryazan refinery, Russia\u2019s third-largest by capacity.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1457\" data-end=\"1743\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">Last year, drone attacks pushed Russia\u2019s oil refining volumes down to a 12-year low of 266 million tonnes. By the end of the current year, output is expected to remain at roughly the same level. From January to October, refinery production declined by 3% to 5.2 million barrels per day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":150839,"menu_order":0,"template":"","newscat":[9],"newstag":[],"issues":[],"class_list":["post-150838","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","newscat-novosti"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/150838","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/150839"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=150838"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"newscat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newscat?post=150838"},{"taxonomy":"newstag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newstag?post=150838"},{"taxonomy":"issues","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/issues?post=150838"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
