• Rafo’s first two distillation units had a capacity of only 1.5 Mtpa each and were used to process Romanian domestic crude. A third and much larger tower (3 Mtpa) was subsequently added.
• The latter CDU is now the only distillation unit in operation. Under RAFO’s modernisation scheme, it will process 2.6 Mtpa of imported URALS crude.
• All of the major inland refineries in Romania are supplied with crude from the deep-sea terminal at Constanta, on the Black Sea.
• Several pipelines start from Constanta to Baragan. In turn, a 50 cm diameter pipeline supplies Onesti refinery from Baragan. This latter pipeline has more than enough pumping capacity for RAFO to run at 2.6 Mtpa.
