According to the Türkmen gündogary newspaper’s Saturday issue, the refinery produced over 224.8 thousand tons of gasoline during the period, which is 114.8% more than compared to the same period last year.
The Seydi refinery also produced around 124.2 thousand tons of diesel fuel and about 29.9 thousand tons of road bitumen during the period.
