SINGAPORE - Bahrain's state oil firm Bapco Energies expects to commission its Sitra refinery expansion in the fourth quarter of this year, and will be looking to buy heavier crudes than it now runs and more liquefied natural gas, a senior executive said on Monday.
The expansion will increase Sitra's refining capacity to "just under 400,000 barrels per day" from about 265,000 bpd, said Bapco's group chief strategy officer, Alexander van Veldhoven, speaking at the APPEC Conference in Singapore .
