In line with efforts to boost the country's oil refining output, Abadan crude processing facility's gasoline production capacity has reached 12 million liters per day, the refinery’s managing director said.
"The refinery's gasoline output level stood at less than 10 ml/d in 2016, yet it has recently increased to 12 ml/d," Esfandiar Daemolzekr was also quoted as saying by Shana, the National Iranian Oil Company's news agency.
"Two refining units, which had been disused for four years, were totally overhauled to accomplish the goal. Plans have been devised to start the production of Euro-4 gasoline by the end of the current fiscal year [ending March 20]."
The official noted that the units had stopped working due to technical problems in sulfuric acid recovery units, but they were renovated and went on stream in 2017.
