At the end of November China Petroleum Technology & Development Corporation (CPTDC) experts visited Naftan to discuss issues of future development and repairs at the enterprise. This company is a wholly owned subsidiary enterprise of China National Petroleum Corporation. It acts as the general contractor of contracts in the field of oil and gas extraction, pipeline construction, oil refining and petrochemicals production, and is also the largest supplier of Chinese petrochemical materials and equipment.

The large-scale repair campaign of 2019 at Naftan finished at the "Phenolic oil purification No. 1". Updates at this facility are designed to improve the technical and economic properties of the equipment. Repair made it possible to introduce some technological solutions that helped to increase the efficiency of the production process.

Almost simultaneously maintenance works began at "Dewaxing of oils unit No.1" and "Oil filtration unit". Within limited time many complex operations were carried out aimed at increasing the reliability of those facilities, optimization of production processes and scaling up their efficiency. The repairs were completed on schedule.

The key to sustainable development of the enterprise is in the increase in production capacity. Along with new large and significant investment projects OJSC "Naftan" implements measures for the reconstruction and repair of existing technological facilities that ran off the required cycle. Large-scale work is currently underway on a propane deasphaltization unit.
