There is a strong demand for products made by Belarusian oil refineries. Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko made the relevant statement as he made a number of personnel decisions on 28 July and authorized the appointment of Oleg Zhebin as Director General of OAO Naftan, BelTA has learned.

Oleg Zhebin has been working as a deputy director general (for chemical manufacturing) at the Polymir plant of OAO Naftan up till now.

Aleksandr Lukashenko said: “Naftan and Mozyr Oil Refinery are closely monitored. Make sure to keep things in order. It seems that the performance of the oil refineries has been fixed. And Russians, the Russian president did great. They helped us a lot.”

“They are well-supplied with raw materials and are working steadily,” Oleg Zhebin confirmed.

The president stressed that it will be no problem to secure more raw materials. A favorable development of economic conditions is what matters. “If you need more raw materials, it will not be a problem. If economy doesn't get worse, if it gets better, then surely raw materials will not be a problem. Products get sold, too. The demand is huge. Exporters tell me that we can sell anything we chose to export. In other words, you will be able to work in any situation. This is why I wish you success,” Aleksandr Lukashenko said.
