Oil Refinery at Osijek
1. Before the war this refinery was managed by ASTRA and is now managed by
Yugo-Petrol - a Yugoslav state organization. Crude oil supplies are rime
furnished by Rumania. Payment is effected under a Russian controlled barter
agreement whereby fugoslavia furnishes Rumania with railway sleepers and
wood planks. In 19461 the monthly capacity of the refinery varied between
2,500 and 3,000 tons. The storage tanks are constructed of 13 mm.steel
plates. Six are 6.20 meters high by 9.20 meters in diameter. Nine tanks
are 5 meters high by 7.05 meters in diameter.
A.1 Refinery at Caprs,?
2. This refinery was the property of the Shell Company before the war, and is
now the property of the Yugoslav state, managed by Yugo-Petrol. Crude oil
supplies come from Rumania. Before the war the normal production figlee
varied between 4,500 and 5,000 tons per month. During the period from
April 1946 to December 1946, production fell to between 1,500 and 1,800
tons per month. This drop is attributed in part to smaller crude oil
deliveries because of the scarcity of railway and river tankers as wael as
the freezing of the Danube. About 850 workers are employed regularly_ and
the number of casual hands varies. Storage tanks, constructed of 13mm.
steel plates, are of two sizes: 5.50 meters high by 6.75 meters in
diameter, and 6.25 meters high and 8.95 in diameter.
