On 15.12.2006 an inspection was conducted of the fluid catalytic cracking facility at the Kralupy site of Česká rafinérská, a.s. and as a result it was decided that on 19.12.2006 the facility will be shut down due to turbine repair. The estimated length of the shutdown is 2-3 weeks. For UNIPETROL RAFINÉRIE, a.s., a 100% subsidiary of UNIPETROL, a.s. and a processor in Česká rafinérská, a.s. this shutdown will mean a cut-off of fuels deliveries which will have to be covered from other sources and by purchases. Financial result of this unplanned shutdown UNIPETROL RAFINÉRIE, a.s. will be able to calculate only after it is over and the status before the shutdown is restored.
