The Fergana oil refinery, as reported by the Saneg press service, is slated to significantly increase its production volumes of motor gasoline starting December 11. The strategic move is in response to the surging demand for high-quality and frost-resistant fuel during the winter season, ensuring a stable supply in the gasoline market and meeting the needs of the local population.
The planned augmentation in daily production will witness a substantial doubling of the output of AI-80 and AI-92 gasoline, reaching a total of 1,000 tons.
Habib Latipov, the Deputy General Director for Oil Refining at Saneg, highlighted that the boost in output became feasible through the implementation of advanced technological solutions and processes at the plant. The integration of these innovations is expected not only to meet the immediate demand but also to contribute to the establishment of an affordable market price, providing consumers with a cost-effective fuel option.
The decision to enhance production aligns with the broader modernization efforts initiated by Saneg at the Fergana Oil Refinery in the fall of 2022. The company has earmarked an investment exceeding $400mn to introduce significant upgrades, with a focus on establishing the production of high-octane gasoline, aviation fuel, and contemporary base and motor oils.
Saneg is one of the largest oil and gas companies in Uzbekistan, accounting for about 80% of oil production from 103 fields.
