From your link:

 In 2012, the manufacturing operation of the complex was brought to its processing capacity of 7,000,000 tons (translated)

http://www.cmegroup.com/tools-information/calc_crude.html

7,000,000 metric tons of crude oil equal 51.31 million barrels per year or 140,575 barrels per day.

Smells like a false flag operation, I think the National Socialists called it Operation Himmler...

Just out of curiosity why did you put the source as Breitbart? The link is to The Gateway Pundit and they just copied an article from Jalopnik which quotes Reuters and English Russia.

This article says that the refinery processed 8.26 million tonnes of oil in 2013. According to BP's website, there is a 7.33 conversion ratio, so take that and then divide by 365 days. It comes out to 165,878 barrels per day.
