What it runs on

Which crude this refinery processes is not published. Poland's crude-import mix is shown as national context - it is not this refinery's intake.

This refinery's crude intake by origin: UNKNOWN

Which crude oil ORLEN Plock Refinery runs on is not published, so it is UNKNOWN. Refinery-level crude intake by origin is not public in most of Europe, and we do not allocate a national figure across refineries.

Unknown

National · PolandNational context — not this refinery's own figure

National context, not this refinery's intake: Poland has 1 other crude oil refinery recorded, so the import mix describes the country as a whole. In June 2026, Poland's crude imports came mainly from Saudi Arabia (46%), Norway (42%) and Guyana (6%).

Does the national figure describe this refinery?UnknownUnknownNo: the country has other crude refineries, and the national total is not divided between them.

Outages and maintenance

Planned and unplanned shutdowns we can cite. There is no public register for EU refineries, so an empty list is not a clean record.

No public outage register exists for EU refineries (docs/DATA_SOURCES.md §L).

Source notes for this refinery (verbatim)

Capacity is from ORLEN's own Integrated Report 2023 (16.3 Mt/a); no bpd figure was published, so capacity_bpd is left EMPTY rather than converted. ORLEN Group total throughput ~45 Mt/yr across 7 refineries in PL, CZ and LT. The Druzhba western section feeds PCK Schwedt and TotalEnergies Spergau in Germany - relevant to the German rows. Coordinates are OpenStreetMap-derived (Nominatim/Overpass, queried 2026-09-21), not operator-published.
