Without petroleum products and factories: as Russia's economy survives in isolation

The aggressor country is already forced to stop the largest factories specializing in methanol production. Western economic sanctions against Russia are beginning to operate: the country has already lost its possibility to sell oil and gas chemical products. And after the closing of European markets in the Russian Federation, internal consumption fell sharply, so methanol producers are forced to minimize production and sell products in China for nothing.

About it reports the Russian edition "Kommersant". Yes, the aggressor country is already forced to stop the largest factories specializing in methanol production. For example: methanol is one of the first release of natural gas, it is produced by nine companies. Their total production capacity is estimated at 4. 5 million tons per year, exports are approximately 2 million tons.

In 2021, this sector actively increased profits against the backdrop of high world prices, and some companies ("Scheckinoasot", "Metafrax") expanded capacity. The world market, according to E&R, is almost 85 million tons, almost half of which are processed in China. By 2025, global methanol production can increase to 110-120 million tons. Prior to the war, Russian companies thought to produce methanol even more.

For example, nearly 1 million tons per year were planned to produce mineral fertilizers at the Nahodkinsky plant. Another 1. 7 million tons a year planned to produce "Eurohim" on its capacities in Kingiseppa. It should be reminded that the authorities of Poland, Ireland, Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia propose that the European Union further strengthen economic sanctions against Russia, forbidding the aggressor country to import diamonds.
