KONSTANTINOVSKCY PETROLEUM REFINERY
KONSTANTINOVSKIY, USSR
The Konstantinovskiy Petroleum Refinery is located 3/4 nautical mile
southeast of the center of the town of Konstantinovskiy, USSR and 11+
nautical miles northwest of Yaroslavl on the west bank of the Volga
River (Figure 2). Approximate geographic coordinates for the center
of the refinery are 57 49 25N - 39 37 28E and its orientation is north
northwest/south southeast.
The refinery is irregular in shape with maximum dimensions of 6,000
feet by 3,300 feet. It is served by road, rail and river barges and the
distribution of finished products is probably effected in the same manner.
The basic refining area has not changed greatly since see
Figures 3 and 5. -
25XID Examination of all available photographic coverage from
indicates that the refinery was active during this
period. Steam or smoke can be seen coming from refining units. In
addition the physical changes in the waste water discharge (Figure 5,
Item 10), from the refinery can be noted on all the photographic coverage.
The limits of and the various sections within the Konstantinovskiy
Petroleum Refinery are shown on Figure 5.
