Yaroslavl Refinery (Slavneft-YANOS)

Yaroslavl Refinery (Slavneft-YANOS) is a refinery in Russia with a reported capacity of 300,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Slavneft (Gazprom Neft / Rosneft). By capacity it ranks #8 of 10 oil refineries tracked in Russia.

In context: how this facility compares

At 300,000 BBL per day, Yaroslavl Refinery (Slavneft-YANOS) is around the median refinery in Russia (340,000 BBL per day). Subsector: oil-and-gas-refining. As refinery, it requires high process heat (typically 200–600°C) for its core industrial operations — heat that must be supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion, and losses through uninsulated vessels and piping represent wasted fuel. Removable modular insulation can cut those losses by 80–96%, surface-cooling equipment to ≤45°C, with payback often under 2 years. Refineries heat, fractionate and chemically transform crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through energy-intensive distillation and cracking — extremely demanding on steam generation and heat recovery.
