The Sŭngri Refinery is a Russian-design oil refinery with a capacity of 2 million tons located in Sŏnbong-gun, Rasŏn Special Economic Zone, North Korea.[1] It is served by the Sŭngri Line of the Korean State Railway.[2]
Investment[]
In 2013, Mongolian firm bought a 20% share in the refinery with intention to supply crude oil to Sŭngri and export refined products to Mongolia. In 2016, South Korean newspaper Korea Joogang Daily reported HBOil had withdrawn from the deal following pressure from the international community due to North Korea's ongoing nuclear weapon and missile testing.[3] HBOil publicly denied the claims.[4]
