KIEV, June 20 – Production at Shebelynka gas refinery (Kharkiv region) will come to a halt on July 1 due to the non-prolongation of standards for the production of Euro-2 and Euro-3 fuel, a source in the Energy and Coal Industry Ministry told Interfax-Ukraine.

"From July 1, 2013, the Euro-3 fuel standards were not prolonged, and the refinery will be stopped," the source said.

Ukrgazvydobuvannia, which operates the Shebelynka gas refinery, on June 21 will put 39,270 tons of gas condensate up for sale on the market of the First Independent Exchange at a starting price of UAH 7,194 per ton.
