Lukoil will use the planned shutdown to upgrade technological equipment, improve ambient air quality and reduce energy consumption.
Petrotel-Lukoil was fined earlier this month for breaching air quality norms. This was the fifth fine received in the past two years.
One of the largest oil refineries in eastern Europe, Petrotel-Lukoil was added to Lukoil’s portfolio back in 1998.
Apart from the refinery, Lukoil operates a network of 300 gas stations in Romania.
