 At the Party Congress of the Vietnam Oil and Gas Group (PVN) in 2020-2025 term, on June 9,2020, in Hanoi, Mr. Le Manh Hung - PVN General Director proposed a target to decrease  average cost of the crude oil exploitation for being able to stand steady (even if the crude oil price falling to 30 USD / barrel).

According to Vietnam Oil and Gas Group (PVN), it is not feasible to buy oil with “bottom price” because we do not yet have mechanisms and policies on risks for this activity (buying oil at “bottom price” leads to losses). On the other hand, at present, in Vietnam there are no national oil reserve depots, while the crude oil storages of Dung Quat and Nghi Son refinery plants can only meet production needs of these plants. It is also not feasible to rent an oil tanker (at least at this time), because of difficulty of our financial potential.

At the working meeting with the key leaders of Quang Ngai province on Feb 22, President Truong Tan Sang affirmed: Although the crude oil prices in the world continue sharp fall, Vietnam still is determined to upgrade and expand Dung Quat oil refinery Plant in coming time.

In fact, Because the capacity for producing gasoline and oil products is much lower than its consumption demand, Vietnam still has to spend billions of dollars to import petrochemical products for domestic demand and according to the demand forecast, Vietnam will lack a large amount of gasoline and oil products in the future...
