Petrobrazi, boasting an annual refining capacity of 4.5 million tons/year of crude oil, stands as one of Romania’s foremost refineries. It serves as a pivotal hub where crude oil undergoes processing, resulting in a diverse array of high-value petroleum products, ranging from gasoline and diesel to LPG and aviation fuel. Presently, Petrobrazi operates at exemplary environmental and performance standards, capable of refining the entire equity crude oil production of OMV Petrom. In a strategic move towards sustainability, the Romanian oil company plans to construct 55MW of green hydrogen projects at its Petrobrazi refinery, located 60km north of Bucharest. This initiative involves the installation of two electrolysers, one with a capacity of 35MW and the other with 20MW. The renewable hydrogen generated will be utilized in the production of bio-based sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and biodiesel, marking a significant step towards reducing carbon emissions in the aviation sector.

The Rijeka Refinery, located in Urinj, Croatia, is an oil refinery that processes crude oil to produce fuels and refined petroleum products. The plant has undergone a major modernization project worth approximately €700 million, aimed at the construction of a Delayed Coking Unit and associated facilities. The project enables the refinery to process a wider range of crude oils, including heavier grades, with a capacity of up to approximately 4 million tonnes per year.
