Rosneft is deliberately delaying refinery repairs because restored facilities are being attacked again, Bloomberg.
Protective structures do not prevent destruction, there is not enough money for repairs, and sanctions make access to equipment difficult.
The Ryazan refinery has been idle for more than half the time, the Syzran refinery has been effectively nonoperational for almost half a year, and the Tuapse refinery has not processed oil since April.
Since the beginning of the year Ukraine has carried out at least 114 strikes on refineries — twice as many as last year. Rosneft’s profit for the half-year fell by almost 20%.
