The Hanoitimes - Dung Quat Oil Refinery in the central province of Quang Ngai will resume its full production next Monday, three days ahead of deadline, after the first comprehensive maintenance lasting nearly two months.


Vu Quang Nam, deputy general director of PetroVietnam, said Binh Son Refining and Petrochemical Co., a unit of PetroVietnam, had operated some production workshops with a capacity of 70% so far and two workshops were still under maintenance.

The Dung Quat plant, set to have a second maintenance in four years’ time, has refined and produced over 3.3 million tons of oil, earning total revenue of VND68.7 trillion and paying VND8.8 trillion in taxes to the State.

The maintenance was performed with the participation of around 3,600 workers and experts from Binh Son Refining and Petrochemical Co. and some experts from South Korea and Singapore at a total cost of US$25 million.

Dung Quat Oil Refinery, with total investment of US$3 billion and a designed processing capacity of 6.5 million tons per year, has met around 30% of domestic fuel demand.

The refinery was built in mid-2005 by a Technip-led consortium and was completed after 44 months of construction and a test run in February 2009.
