Crude Supply

  • The key feedstock of Grupa LOTOS S.A.’s refinery in Gdańsk is the Russian Ural crude oil and the Rozewie crude oil produced on the Baltic Sea (by LOTOS Petrobaltic). However, in its history the plant has processed various types of oil, including oil sourced from the North Sea (e.g. Brent Blend, Troll, Gullfaks, Forties or Aasgard), the Middle East (e.g. Kirkuk, Kuwait, Sahara and Zakum), as well as some exotic types of oil, such as Castilla crude from Columbia
  • The company has a strategy of processing more of its own crude as production increases

Products Produced

  • Gasoline, diesel (ultra low-sulfur diesel [ULSD]), light heating oil, jet fuel, bunker oils, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), heavy fuel oil (HFO), bitumens, and base oils.
