Happy Petrochemist's Day!

Happy Petrochemist's Day!

Today we celebrate not just a profession. We celebrate the people who, for more than six decades, have been writing the history of the Bulgarian petrochemical industry.

From the first installations in 1963 to the modern oil refinery today, behind every achievement stand knowledge, experience, professionalism, and dedication.

Today we thank the veterans who laid the foundations and created a professional school. The petrochemists of today, who every day carry the responsibility for production, safety, and quality. And the young specialists who will continue this history and build the future.

We are proud of the history and believe in the future.

We wish all current and former petrochemists, as well as their families, health, professional satisfaction, and many more reasons for pride!

Happy holiday!

In June we reached 527 thousand tons, and in July - 560 thousand tons of processed oil. In August I expect the figures to be close to those from July. This was stated before the Energy Committee by the new special manager of "Lukoil".
