The Abadan refinery (Persian: پالایشگاه آبادان Pālāyeshgāh-e Ābādān) is an oil refinery located in Abadan near the coast of the Persian Gulf. Built by the Anglo-Persian Oil Company (later BP) on the basis of a lease obtained in 1909, it was completed in 1912 as a pipeline terminus, and was one of the world's largest oil refineries. In 1927, oil exports from Abadan totalled nearly 4.5 million tons. Its nationalisation in 1951 prompted the Abadan Crisis and ultimately the toppling of the democratically elected prime minister Mossaddegh. More information...
