Russia offered assistance to the countries of the Arabian Peninsula in the rehabilitation of refineries Russia offered assistance to the countries of the Arabian Peninsula in the rehabilitation of damaged refineries. The head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, Anton Alikhanov, announced this at the "Russian Engineer" congress. "Right now, all global partnerships are being tested to the limit. And when oil refineries were damaged in the Middle East crisis, they offered their counterparts in the Arabian Peninsula assistance in their rehabilitation," he said. According to him, Russian industry has already developed sufficient capabilities in oil and gas equipment to provide an alternative to global licensees. "And they even created their own set of industrial standards, competing with the API (American Petroleum Institute), which are gradually recognized by Arab partners," the minister emphasized. Russian refineries themselves are regularly attacked, and companies have already gained significant experience in rapidly restoring capacity. Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak reported that oil companies have learned to restore plants quickly after damage, and the scope of repairs in the industry is progressing at an accelerated pace.
