Notes

Assignment of a new director to SOCAR oil refinery named after Heydar Aliyev indicates active management and operational status. This contradicts the database record claiming the facility is closed. The news suggests the refinery is functioning under SOCAR's management, though utilization may not be at full capacity.

These are counts of what publishers filed about this plant, not an operating status. A quiet month means nobody named this facility that month, which is a fact about coverage and not about the plant. Where this site states how a refinery is running it says so in the facts table above, from the curated dataset, and cites it there.
