Rafineria Gdańska Sp. z o.o. operates one of the most advanced production facilities in this part of Europe, with its annual throughput capacity exceeding 10 million tonnes of crude oil. The company has a headcount of 1245 employees and its core business comprises processing activities, with crude oil supplied to the refinery converted into high-margin products. Together with its asset base, Rafineria Gdańska Sp. z o.o. is opening a new chapter in the history of Gdańsk’s refining industry, which dates back to March 1st 1972 when Rafineria Nafty Gdańsk w Budowie was established. Its name was subsequently changed to Gdańskie Zakłady Rafineryjne, Rafineria Gdańska S.A., Grupa LOTOS S.A. and Rafineria Gdańska Sp. z o.o. The most recent landmark capital investment project implemented at the refinery (worth PLN 2.3bn) was the EFRA Project. The project execution was entrusted in 2014 to the then LOTOS Asfalt. The units built as part of the project came on stream in late 2019, with the most important ones comprising the Coking Complex. In addition to raising throughput capacity, the EFRA Project helped to eliminate production of high-sulfur heavy fuel oil.
