According to the information received by trend from KazMunayGas, Kazakhstan's national energy company, the volume of crude oil refining and production of main types of oil products is carried out at the facility in accordance with the agreed indicative plan of the Ministry of Energy.

The enterprise has also produced a little over 1 million tons of diesel fuel (0.4 percent above the plan).

At the same time, it is planned to build a gas turbine power plant and a VAL line from Atyrau CHP to increase the reliability of power supply of Atyrau Refinery.
