Refinery news roundup: New projects announced in Africa ...
Iraq's oil ministry has announced a tender for a 100,000 b/d refinery in Qayarah, 60 km south of Mosul. It did not say whether it will be a completely new construction or a building out of the existing Qayarah refinery, which has a 20,000 b/d nameplate capacity but has been operating at 4,000 b/d due to damage inflicted in the battle against the selfproclaimed Islamic State group.
