RoydadNaft – <\/a><\/span>\u00a0Ukrainian drones attacked Russia’s big Salavat petrochemical complex in the Urals region, the local governor said, but he predicted it would return to \u2060normal output within days.<\/p>\n

Ukraine’s military said it had carried out overnight attacks on Salavat and on the Afipsky refinery in southern Russia overnight – part of an intensified set of strikes on Russian energy infrastructure aimed at undermining Moscow’s ability to wage the war.<\/p>\n

The Neftekhim Salavat complex, owned by Gazprom, has been attacked by drones several times in the past year.<\/div>\n

“Key facilities remain undamaged. There is \u200csome \u2060damage to the utility racks that carry supply lines and electrical cables,” regional governor Radiy Khabirov posted on Telegram.<\/p>\n

“Restoration work will proceed around the clock. I expect the facility to return to normal \u2060operating capacity within several days. This is extremely important.”<\/p>\n

The Salavat petrochemical complex produces gasoline, diesel, kerosene and other petroleum products as well as liquefied \u2060gases, butyl alcohols, polyethylene, polystyrene and ammonia.<\/p>\n

According to industry sources, the plant processed 7.2 million tons of oil in 2024, or around \u20602.7% of Russia’s total oil refining, producing 2.5 million tons of diesel, 1.5 million tons of gasoline and 700,000 tons of fuel oil.<\/p>\n
