Latest News About Kirishi

Here’s the latest I could gather from recent public reports:

• Kirishi refinery (near St. Petersburg) has been affected by drone attacks in 2025–2026, with reports of shutdowns of major processing units and partial or slow restarts expected, reflecting ongoing disruptions to Russia’s northwest energy complex. These events have influenced local and regional fuel supply dynamics and could impact exports depending on restart progress.

• In March 2026, sources suggested Kirishi could partially restart within a month after a drone attack, though the pace depends on safety assessments and recovery work. This indicates ongoing operational uncertainty at the facility.

• Coverage from various outlets in 2025–2026 describes drones and related incidents impacting Kirishi’s CDU units and overall refinery throughput, with some articles noting that the refinery’s capacity is substantial (hundreds of thousands of barrels per day) and that production may lag until units return to service.

• Other sources (early reports in 2025) highlighted broader implications for Russia’s refining capacity and potential knock-on effects on fuel supply and product exports, due to damage at Kirishi and other facilities.

If you want, I can:

• Narrow to a specific date window (e.g., last 2 weeks) and summarize the most recent developments.
• Pull direct links to the most recent refinery-status updates and any official statements.
• Create a quick timeline of reported events and restart estimates.

Would you like me to focus on a particular date range or gather corroborating official statements?
