At the meeting between the Standing Committee of the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee and Binh Son Refining and Petrochemical Joint Stock Company (BSR) on September 23, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Bui Thi Quynh Van emphasized the contribution of BSR as the driving force for socio-economic growth of the province. At the meeting, the Standing Committee of the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee directed to focus on removing many obstacles in the implementation of important projects of BSR.

The working session is an opportunity for BSR to report and present difficulties and challenges to the Standing Committee of Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee in the development process of the enterprise.

This is the second working session of the Standing Committee of the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee with BSR this year. Previously, on April 24, the Standing Committee of the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee worked with BSR on many important issues. In particular, the Standing Committee of the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee acknowledged BSR's contributions to the economic structure and local budget growth, and accepted many recommendations from BSR to the Provincial Party Committee, the People's Committee of Quang Ngai Province and central ministries and branches.

At this meeting, Provincial Party Secretary Bui Thi Quynh Van emphasized that the Resolution of the First Provincial Party Congress sets the target of achieving an average GRDP growth rate of 10% or more per year for the period 2026-2030. Therefore, Quang Ngai province has determined that it must form new growth zones to create momentum for sustainable development, with the Dung Quat Economic Zone and BSR playing a key role and serving as pillars to realize this strategic goal.

Comrade Bui Ngoc Duong reported on production and business contents and made recommendations to the Provincial Party Committee and People's Committee of Quang Ngai province.

Reporting at the conference, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Tran Phuoc Hien informed the results of implementing Conclusion No. 2764-KL/TU, emphasizing the difficulties and obstacles of the National Oil Refinery and Energy Center Project in Dung Quat Economic Zone, especially issues related to the progress of the Dung Quat Oil Refinery and Petrochemical Center project.

According to the report of BSR Chairman of the Board of Directors Bui Ngoc Duong, since Dung Quat Refinery launched its first commercial product line in 2009, BSR has produced more than 102.7 million tons of products, achieved revenue of 1,807 trillion VND, paid nearly 245 trillion VND to the state budget and after-tax profit of more than 53.8 trillion VND. In the first 9 months of 2025 alone, the factory's output reached over 5 million tons, revenue of 105,289 billion VND, paid about 10,688 billion VND to the state budget, and profit exceeded the plan. Social security work has also received special attention with more than 911 billion VND deployed, of which Quang Ngai alone achieved more than 343 billion VND, accounting for 38%.

These impressive figures affirm the role of Dung Quat Refinery not only in ensuring national energy security and defense security, but also in making a significant contribution to the socio-economic stability of Quang Ngai province. For many years, BSR has contributed an average of about 52% of the province's GRDP. BSR is also a center for training high-quality technical human resources, promoting the development of supporting industries, and attracting many large investors.

Looking ahead, BSR aims to become the Vietnam National Refinery and Petrochemical Corporation, a key player in building the National Refinery and Petrochemical and Energy Center in Dung Quat, while also making Quang Ngai one of the top 10 localities contributing to the national budget. In addition, BSR always prioritizes social and environmental responsibility and is committed to fulfilling its emission reduction commitments made at COP26.

Comrade Nguyen Hoang Giang spoke at the meeting

At the meeting, BSR also proposed that the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial People's Committee support the resolution of a number of issues related to the Dung Quat Refinery and Petrochemical Refinery NCMR project, the investment policy for the 110kV Power Station, the land fund for the construction of a new headquarters, afforestation - green projects, security, safety of the Plant's operations as well as renewable energy projects. BSR's recommendations were all agreed upon by the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee and departments and branches, especially ensuring the progress of the Dung Quat Refinery and Petrochemical Refinery NCMR project.

For this project, on July 25, BSR organized the selection of a contractor for "Site leveling" and posted the bidding documents on the national bidding network. However, up to now, there are still 6 planned mines that have not been licensed for exploitation to serve the project. Therefore, BSR requested the Provincial People's Committee to consider and direct solutions to support BSR in site leveling work, ensuring the overall progress of the project.

At the meeting, the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee discussed and agreed to prepare clean land for BSR to build a new headquarters, worthy of the company's position and contributions. In addition, the province also supports BSR in participating in forest protection and development to balance the ecosystem and reduce carbon emissions.

In her concluding remarks, Provincial Party Secretary Bui Thi Quynh Van affirmed that over the years, BSR, with its spirit of solidarity and efforts to overcome challenges, epidemics, and international political fluctuations, has maintained production and business activities to meet and exceed its plan. Dung Quat Refinery has achieved many positive results and is a symbol of the aspiration to rise up and innovate not only of the enterprise but also of the locality.

Comrade Bui Thi Quynh Van: The province is accompanying BSR; BSR is accompanying the province. This is not a relationship between a management agency and a business, but a strategic partnership for mutual development.

The Secretary of the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee emphasized: “The province accompanies BSR; BSR accompanies the province. This is not a relationship between a management agency and an enterprise, but a strategic connection for mutual development. The province considers BSR as a driving force for socio-economic growth, prioritizing maximum support of resources for BSR to implement major projects, affirming its position as an industrial locomotive, contributing to making Quang Ngai a bright spot for development in the Central region and the whole country.”

Regarding BSR's proposals, Provincial Party Secretary Bui Thi Quynh Van requested that all levels and sectors of the province take decisive, coordinated, specific, and swift action. This includes completing the procedures for designating suitable land mines to ensure sufficient supply of leveling materials for the NCMR Dung Quat Refinery project. Simultaneously, she proposed mechanisms and policies to establish a National Petrochemical and Energy Center within the Dung Quat Economic Zone.

Comrade Bui Thi Quynh Van also expressed her hope that BSR would continue to leverage its internal strengths, promote innovation, expand international cooperation, and develop green energy products such as solar power, wind power, and green materials. This is an essential direction to ensure both economic development and environmental responsibility, contributing to the sustainable development goals of the province and the nation.
