Two more storage tanks and a new plant to produce turbo diesel fuel will
be soon added to the Cienfuegos, Cuba refinery – a joint venture with
that country and Venezuela that processes 69,000 barrels of crude oil daily.
The project includes installing two tanks with an oil capacity for 10
days of operation, said plant deputy-director Raul Perez del Prado, who
noted their importance given the upcoming June to November hurricane season.
The setting up of a hydraulic unit will guarantee higher quality fuel
oil, which is supplied to the Carlos Manuel de Cespedes power generating
plant of that province.
The Camilo Cienfuegos refinery of Cienfuegos, over 155 miles south east
of Havana, has run at full capacity since its re-inauguration last
December by Cuba's CUPET and Venezuela's PDVSA publicly-run oil
companies, as part of the energy project for the Caribbean sponsored by
the Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas (ALBA).
The plant currently produces liquefied gas, naphtha, gasoline, fuel for
turbo engines, diesel and fuel oil.
