The Austrian OMV refinery in Schwechat will not be able to restart in time after regular maintenance due to the plant’s shutdown, VG wrote on its website on Friday, citing industry sources that this situation predicts supply problems.

One of the largest refineries in Central Europe shut down in early April 2022 due to routine scheduled maintenance. Production is scheduled to resume on June 10, but it is estimated that this will require several weeks of additional work. The paper is aware that OMV has not yet officially informed Molt and its other partners about the problem, and the oil company is waiting for help from the Austrian government, presumably to release some of its strategic stocks.
