Today, crude oil sales is economically profitable than sales of petroleum products, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. "Oil is more expensive. This is such perverse realities of today's economy" - the prime minister said, answering journalists' questions about the prospects of a refinery (refinery) at the end of the Eastern Siberia-Pacific Ocean. The prime minister said the oil companies keep crude oil prices on the bases, take on lease tankers waiting for world economic growth and increasing consumption of "black gold" for a more profitable sale. In Russia, build refineries, of course, it is necessary here, but the strategy was "a bit at odds with economic benefit," said Putin. "This requires an analysis requires a preliminary assessment - understanding what is needed specifically to build, where to build and to whom to sell," - said the head of government. "The higher the redistribution of production, the more value added. That is, the sale can get more money "- comments Bank.ru analyst Otkritie Vadim Mitroshin. "In theory, selling processed products beneficial to both producers and consumers and for the whole country as a whole. But as our company is not ready for it. Firstly, it is practically nothing to offer. The quality and depth of processing of our refineries is far behind not only the plants in Western Europe, but in the East. The main product of oil refining, which are for export - oil. Engine fuel Russian players could only sell in the domestic market. Abroad, it is unnecessary. Secondly, we should remember about the cost of transport. Oil is usually exported through pipelines. A petroleum products by rail, on water - on tankers, etc. The pipeline is much cheaper ", - explained the expert.
