The project started in October 2013 and was completed in April 2017, using the world’s most modern refinery technologies.
When operating at the maximum designed capacity, NSRP will meet approximately 40 per cent of the domestic petrol and oil demand and contribute to ensuring a significant growth of petroleum consumption in Việt Nam in the coming years. — VNS
