Background

The first oil pipeline in Ukraine, Dolyna-Drohobych, with a length of 58.4 km, was built in 1962 to transport oil to the Drohobych Oil Refinery. It is connected with the putting into operation of the Pivnichno-Dolinsky oil field. The pipeline is considered part of the Druzhba Oil Pipeline. In 2017, it was reported that Druzhba Oil Pipeline was the only operational main oil pipeline in Ukraine. On September 29, 2023 a powerful explosion was reported on the Dolyna-Drohobych Oil Pipeline injuring six people.
