Fire at Moscow refinery will not cause fuel shortages, minister says

A recent fire at a major Moscow refinery will not lead to fuel shortages in the region as production from other refineries would compensate for the temporary disruption, Interfax news agency reported on Thursday citing Russian Energy Minister Sergei Tsivilev.

Gazpromneft's SIBN.MM Moscow refinery suspended operations at combined refining unit Euro+, that includes crude distillation unit CDU-6, after a fire on Sunday, three sources told Reuters.

The Moscow refinery in the southeast of the Russian capital was hit in a recent drone attack on Sept. 1, when Ukraine was also targeting Russia's power plants.
