Which specific unit at Lukoil's Perm refinery was damaged by the Ukrainian drone strike, and what share of the refinery's total capacity did it represent?

The drone strike damaged and forced the shutdown of the refinery's CDU-5 primary crude processing unit, which has a throughput capacity of 12,930 metric tons per day and accounts for about 34% of the plant's total refining capacity.

What is the estimated impact on the Perm refinery's overall crude processing capacity following the damage to CDU-5?

Industry specialists said the refinery could use spare capacity at its remaining units—CDU-4 (38%), CDU-1 and CDU-2 (each 14%)—to continue processing crude at around 75% of its nameplate capacity, though the sources were unable to estimate how long repairs to CDU-5 would take.
