Flexible adjustments have been made to the Dung Quat Oil Refinery’s operation soas to optimise the output of RON 95, RON 92 and diesel, while reducing the amountof Jet-A1 fuel since demand for the fuel remained weak due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

With a view to diversifying input materials at competitive prices for the Dung QuatOil Refinery, the BSR tested two new kinds of crude oil, Qua Iboe of Nigeria andCabinda of Angola.
