Bashneft – Ufimsky refinery plant was one of the most up-to-date oil refineries in Russia as of 2014 which was able produce a wide range of petroleum products.[1]

Quick facts Country, Province ...

The refinery's workflow uses highly efficient thermic, catalytic, and hydrogenation processes. The refinery's equipment produces Euro-4 and Euro-5 fuels, boiler fuel, and a liquefied gases.[citation needed]

To achieve 100% output of Euro-4 and Euro-5 gasoline, a catalytic cracking gasoline hydrotreater for removal of sulfur compounds is under constructed.[citation needed]

The authorized capital of JSC Ufa Refinery is RUB 619,277 million (2020).[2]

The feedstock for processing is principally West Siberian oil (about 50%), Bashkir oil (about 40%), and 10% gas condensate.[3]

In 2025, the refinery has come under multiple attacks during the Russo-Ukrainian War by Ukrainian drones which has reduced plant refinery capacity.[4][5]

History

Summarize
Perspective

Plant construction began in 1935; it officially opened in 1937, following the opening of the stone refinery in 1936.[6]

In 1938, the plant produced its first 117 tons of racing oil; in 1939, the first stage of the plant was completed; in the late 1940s, the second stage (combined pyrolysis plant, sulfate phenol refining and bitumen plant) and the third stage (gas fractionation, polymerization and hydrogenation) were in operation. During the Great Patriotic War, the plants supplied fuel to the front.[citation needed]

The plant has been part of the Bashkir Petrochemical Company since 1994.[7] In 1995, to replace obsolete equipment, the G-43-107M/1 contact cracking complex was introduced to increase the depth of oil refining and produce high-octane gasoline. In 2008 an isomerization unit for pentane-hexane fractions was built according to a scheme involving hexane recycling Isomalk-2 technology.[8]

21st century

JSC Ufa Refinery was restructured under JSC ANC Bashneft in 2012.[2]

The share capital of JSC Ufa Refinery amounted to 619.3 million rubles in 2020.[9]

The raw materials supplied to the plant for processing in 2024 were mainly oil from Western Siberia (about 50%), Bashkiria (about 40%) and 10% of the raw materials are natural-gas condensate.[10]

On 3 March 2025, the Ufimsky oil refinery plant came under attack by Ukrainian drones, some 1,500 kilometres (930 mi) from the Ukrainian border; a fire broke out burning some 100 square metres (1,100 sq ft).[4] The refinery came under attack again on 11 October 2025.[5][needs update]
