Background

With the discovery of oil fields in eastern Ukraine (Lelyaky, Hnidyntsy, Pryluky in the Chernihiv region; Kachanivka, Belske, and Rybalske in the Poltava region) and the commissioning of the Kremenchuk Oil Refinery in 1966, a whole system of oil pipelines was built, including the Hnidyntsy-Glynsko-Rozbyshivska and Mala Pavlivka-Kremenchuk oil pipelines. In 1972, with the increase in oil production in the Chernihiv region, the second line of the Hnidintsy-Glynsko-Rozbyshivska pipeline was constructed.

The pipeline is part of the Pridneprovsky Oil Pipeline, which was used to transport oil from the northern and eastern borders with Russia, specifically from areas near Sumy and Luhansk, to the Lysychansk and Kremenchuk refineries. It then extends to the ports in Kherson and Odessa. Despite being Ukraine's oldest pipeline, it has not transported oil from Russia since 2010. However, at the start of 2017, it commenced transporting Azerbaijani oil to Kremenchuk.

The pipeline was mentioned as operating in 2019. However, as of February 2024, the status of its operation is unclear and is presumed to be idle considering the ongoing Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the fact that in January 2024 the Kremenchuk Oil Refinery suffered severe damage due to shelling by Russian military forces, with the facility nearly destroyed.
