Rosneft plans to invest up to 14 billion roubles in the modernisation and expansion of oil processing units at the Novokuibyshevsk oil refinery in 2010 through 2014. As a result, the amount of crude oil processed for the production of lubricants will reach 1.3 million tonnes, which is 53% more than in 2010. The plant will produce higher-quality Euro-4 and Euro-5 motor oil, meeting API standards in the United States and ASE standards in Europe.
The bulk of the investment will go toward building a new unit.
