Overview
- The Petroperú board, led by Oliver Stark Preuss, held its first decentralized session at Refinería Talara and toured the tank yard, control room, dock 2 and the Flexicoking unit.
- Company leaders confirmed scheduled maintenance on the Unidad de Flexicoking (FCK) is finished and progressive start-up maneuvers have begun under established protocols.
- The delegation inspected the refinery laboratory accredited by INACAL to verify testing procedures that ensure fuels meet technical specifications.
- Board president Stark Preuss met with plant workers and publicly reiterated commitments to transparency, stronger management and financial sustainability for Petroperú.
- Once stabilized, the FCK will convert heavy residuals into gasoline, diesel and LPG and produce flexigas for furnaces and on-site power generation, a change that could raise refinery efficiency and affect fuel supply and costs as start-up is completed.
