Oil Refining

As we all know from school chemistry classes, gasoline is a product of oil distillation. But straight-run distilled gasoline has a very low octane rating at about 50 or 60 — and efficiency at that level, obviously, is very low, with a gasoline yield of about 20 percent. Which is why gasoline production these days involves far more effective secondary processing — involving catalytic cracking and reforming.

Exploration

Sochi-neft LLC s continuously developing its employee training programme in industrial, environmental and occupational safety. Contractors are also involved in the Company’s training programme.

Drilling

Utilising RSS makes possible the construction of extreme reach wells, as well as the high-precision drilling of wells in low-concentration reservoirs (one to two metres thick).

The construction of high-technology wells demands a range of specialist equipment. The basis for modern, effective, precise and safe drilling these days lies in rotary steerable systems (RSS).

Energy and Power

Sochi-neft LLC Refinery is involved in field development in remote, undeveloped regions, completely lacking any utilities infrastructure.
Under such conditions the question of supplying power to field assets becomes imperative — the key response to which lies in the construction of gas-turbine power plants (GTPPs), thus also addressing the question of effective APG utilisation, used as fuel in independent power generation.

Bunkering

Sochi-neft LLC's Marine Bunker is a leader in the Russian bunkering market.

Total annual sales of marine fuel reached over 3.924 million tonnes.

Sochi-neft LLC Marine Bunker is a member of Russian Association of Sea and River Fuelers.
