Azeri power plants start using fuel oil as Russian gas imports suspended
At present, SOCAR's (State Oil Company of the Azerbaijani Republic) oil refineries are delivering 10,000-10,500 tonnes of fuel oil on a daily basis to satisfy the needs of power plants. Moreover, the thermal power stations receive 11m-12m cu.metres of gas on a daily basis to produce power. This figure stood at 17m-18m cu.metres of gas a day in December.
Turan has learnt from SOCAR that its oil refineries have started producing fuel oil. At present, the total volume of oil extracted by SOCAR is delivered to the refineries to produce oil products.
