The Project
- Project Type: Greenfield
- Project Summary: The new grassroots complex consists of an oil refinery, aimed at processing seven million tons of crude oil per year, a deep conversion complex and a petrochemical complex. The deep conversion complex includes aromatics units, a fluidised catalytic cracker, a distillate hydrocracker, a delayed coker and a gasification plant.
- The petrochemical complex will include purified terephthalic acid, polyethylene terephthalate, linear alkylbenzene and polypropylene units, plus the associated power generation plants.
- Main Contractors:
- Foster Wheeler: FEED
- Fluor: Providing project management services and select EPC services
- VNIPIneft: Development of technical documentation and support services for packaging and delivery of equipment installations hydrocracking, hydrogen production and oils.
- Lurgi: To manage Technology Coordination for Hydrocracker
- Giprogazoochistka: Detailed design for combined sulfur recovery unit
- Licences
- Chevron Lummus Global: license for Isocracking technology

Terminal Capacity
- Crude Oil:
- Refined Products:
Crude Supply
- Domestic Crude
- Supply will be through a newly built 118.2 km longoil pipeline, which is to connect TANECO with the oil pumping station "Kaleykino (Almetyevsk Region).
- The crude is heavy and sour.
Products Produced
- The plants of the Complex will produce 18 kinds of oil refining products from motor fuels of European quality to the components of raw materials to produce a wide range of highly demanded petrochemical products.
History
- 2011 - First production after completion of phase one
- 2011 - TANEKO refinery was granted a license by Rostechnadzor for operation of explosion-hazardous production facilities
- 2013 - The hydrogen unit was completed
Other Information
- The rationale behind the project is to utilise the local heavy crude, rather than have to sell it at a discount.
- The refinery is actually being built in two stages, with the upgrading units to be added later on.
