Petrotel-Lukoil refinery is set to restart operations after a 13-month suspension, with Kazakh crude oil expected to arrive by November 20, 2026. Coordination with Oil Terminal and CONPET is essential for the delivery. The refinery has completed technical checks and aims to resume before winter. The operation complies with EU and US sanctions, ensuring no Russian resources are involved. Petrotel, a major player in Romania's refining sector, faces significant debts but aims to protect jobs and assets while contributing to fuel production amid market pressures.
