Tuapse Oil Terminal is an oil import-export terminal located 8 km (5.0 mi) offshore from the port of Tuapse in Krasnodar Krai, Russia. It is one of the biggest oil terminals on the Black Sea and serves as a hub for crude oil deliveries to places beyond. The terminal, which commenced operations in 2005,[1] belongs to the Russian oil giant Rosneft.
The overall capacity of the import-export terminal is approximately 71 million barrels per annum (~9.7×106 t/a) of oil but capacity will be increased to 121 million barrels per annum (~1.65×107 t/a) by 2015.[1] Tanker loading capacity is suitable for Aframax tankers up to 110,000 DWT. The terminal serves the nearby Tuapse Refinery, also owned by Rosneft.[2]
