Capacity of the refinery when the En+ Group sold it to the private NefteGazIndustria Group in 2010 was reported at 72,000 b/d. Located in the Krasnodarskij Region of Russia, the refinery serves local markets.

Jacobs Engineering said units covered by its contract are part of a refinery extension project including a hydrotreater and visbreaker unit.

It will work with the engineering firm Giprogazoochistka, Moscow, a specialist in gas treating and sulfur recovery units.
