The refinery Plama in Bulgaria`s northern city of Pleven is going to reopen in December 2011.
Plama will make mainly lubricants, while fuels will be a side production. The first facility to start functioning there is a vacuum installation in which BGN 20 M have been invested. The expected capacity in the first year is 300 000 tons, and plans are for it to reach 700 000 tons.

Three more installations will open in Plama in the next year. There will be also an industrial park which will attract production from about 50 companies from Europe and Asia.
The refinery will provide about 500-600 job openings.
