Turkmenbashi oil refinery building reservoir park
Construction of two reservoirs – with capacity of 10,000 cub.m. to store diesel fuel and 5,000 cub.m. to store gasoline – is coming to the end on the territory of the Turkmenbashi oil refinery complex.
The reservoirs construction is a part of a wide-scale project of expansion and upgrade of the Turkmenbashi oil refinery’s commodity park. The project is being implemented by the territorial and specialized divisions of the state concern Turkmenneftegasstroi.
It is planned to build 12 reservoirs -65,000 and 10,000 to store finished commodity and resources with total capacity of 90,000 cub.m. Six of them are being built on the territory of the oil refining complex in Turkmenbashi city, five ones in the reservoir park of the Kenar enterprise for oil products storage and shipment and one at the Seidi oil refinery.
The works to mould aseismic ferro-concrete foundations are almost completed. The bottoms manufactured at the metal constructions plant in Zaporozhye, Ukraine, will be installed on the foundation and the roll constructions are unrolled and assembled. The workers have also started installation of the stop valves and operation equipment on the reservoirs. The reservoirs for gasoline storage are equipped with the automated systems to catch and return the gasoline vapors protecting the atmosphere and soil from harmful wastes and sediments, reported http://oilru.com.--0--

Azerbaijan's financial standing continues to strengthen as the country's foreign currency reserves have surged to $71 billion as of January 1, 2025, according to the Ministry of Finance. This figure, which includes reserves held by the State Oil Fund of Azerbaijan (SOFAZ) and the Central Bank of Azerbaijan (CBA), far exceeds the nation's external debt, which stands at a fraction of its reserves, specifically nearly 14 times less. This robust reserve position reflects Azerbaijan's fiscal stability and the government’s strategic economic management.
