Oil refinery begins full operation

Dung Quat oil refinery yesterday started operating at full capacity after halting production on August 8 because of technical problems, said Nguyen Hoai Giang, general director of Binh Son Petro-chemical Refinery Co which operates the refinery.

The refinery's petroleum products would be sold again starting from Friday this week, he said.

The country's first oil refinery is expected to provide 6 million tonnes of products this year, generating a revenue of more than VND108 trillion (US$5.14 billion).
