Task I. Give Ukrainian equivalents to the following word combinations:
to pass through, the total length of the system, operating pumping stations, storage capacity,
to provide oil supplies, the key objective, to ensure reliable operation of all system’s
components, fulfillment of contractual obligations, in respect of both domestic supplies and
transit, gas pumping units, underground gas storage facilities, to process oil and produce
petroleum products, oil refineries stopped working due to unprofitability of operating activity,
modernization of fixed assets, legislation, differ significantly from previous figures, taking
into account the balance, due to the lack of domestic oil, favorable geographical location, the
major gas consumer, a slight reduction in share of consumption, domestic oil and gas
extraction, industrial consumption.
Be ready to use them in the context.

Task II. Read the texts and translate into Ukrainian:

Oil and gas transport and storage systems
Transportation of oil in Ukraine performs Ukrtransnafta (subsidiary of Naftogaz of
Ukraine). The national system of oil pipelines is the second largest in Europe and consists of
19 pipelines that pass through 19 regions in the north-eastern, central and western parts of
Ukraine. The total length of the system is 4,767 km with operating 51 pumping stations.
Storage capacity is more than 1 million m3. The input capacity of the pipe is about 114 m
tons of oil annually and output capacity is 56.3 m tons. Ukraine’s main pipelines provide oil
supplies from Russia and Kazakhstan to refineries in Ukraine and transport oil to the countries
of Central and Western Europe.
Ukrainian gas transportation system (GTS) belongs to the world’s most powerful
systems in terms of its transit capacity. Thus, the role of Ukraine as a transit country for the
European region is crucial and is increased by Ukraine’s favorable geographical location and
its advanced network of gas pipelines capable of transporting energy from East to West. The
key objective of Ukraine as a gas transportation country is to ensure reliable operation of all
system’s components and fulfillment of contractual obligations in respect of both domestic
supplies and transit. Transportation of gas in Ukraine performs State Company Ukrtransgaz
(subsidiary of Naftogaz of Ukraine). National gas transportation system includes:39.8 thsd km
of gas pipelines; 74 compressor stations, 112 compressor units equipped with 703 gas
pumping units with a total capacity of 5,450 MW; over 1,600 gas distribution stations;13
underground gas storage facilities (GSFs) with a total active capacity of over 33.5 billion m3
that makes them biggest in Europe.
The network of GSF includes four parts – Western Ukrainian, Kyiv, Donetsk and
Southern Ukrainian (13 underground GSFs in total).

Oil processing
There are 6 refineries in Ukraine that process oil and produce petroleum products.
They are Ukrtatnafta (Kremenchug Oil Refinery), LINIK (Lisichansk Oil Refinery), NPK
Galychyna (Drohobych Refinery), Lukoil (Odesa Oil Refinery), Naftokhimik Prykarpattya
(Nadvirnyanskiy Refinery), Khersonskiy NPZ (Kherson Oil Refinery). In 2011 only 4 out of
