Uzbekneftegaz is preparing a project to modernize the Bukhara oil refinery: high-octane gasoline will be produced directly during refining, without imported additives. A feasibility study has been developed, the president's approval has been received, and work could start in Q4 or in 2027.
Aziz KarimovThe company stated that its filling stations are supplied with fuel for the winter season: gasoline reserves at oil depots have grown 2.5-fold compared with last year, and the filling station network has expanded from 31 to 152 stations. At the same time, Uzbekneftegaz did not guarantee the absence of queues across the country's entire fuel market.
Aziz KarimovAssociate Professor of Perm Polytech Sergey Pestrikov told Gazeta.Ru that K3 (Euro-3) ecological class gasoline contains up to 150 mg/kg of sulfur versus 10 mg/kg for K5. Sulfur combustion products pollute the air and irritate the airways, especially in people with asthma. Sulfur also reduces the efficiency of the catalytic converter and oxygen sensors, increasing emissions and fuel consumption.
Javlon TursunovGovernor of Lipetsk Region Igor Artamonov announced that from October 21 all regional restrictions on gasoline sales will be lifted in the region: the 'odd-even' system, fuel sale limits, and the ban on filling canisters will be cancelled. At the same time, gas station chains will be able to independently regulate sales volumes at individual stations based on reserves and delivery schedules. The authorities will continue to monitor the situation on the fuel market.
