To meet the
increasing petroleum products consumption of Türkiye the construction of
Izmir Refinery located on the Aegean coast near Aliaga in Izmir began in
1968. While the Refinery capacity was 3.0 millions tons/year at the
start-up in 1972, the capacity was increased gradually by
Debottlenecking Project and an Expansion Project after which the
refinery capacity reached to 10.0 millions tons in 1987. |

The refinery
has two atmospheric distillation and vacuum distillation units,
kerosene/diesel desulphurization units, sulphur recovery unit, one
