1. At RU military depot (fuel tanks)
2. Rail Tanker Car Loading Faility for oil ... this serviced by tap pipeline & pumping station off the main Druhzba Pipeline network that continues to the #Mazryr refinery in #Belarus.

The tap pipeline pumping station on the Druzhba "Friendship" network is at 53.105691°, 35.095544° and feeds the facility at Railcar loading facility at 53.226018°, 34.461276°
The RU military facility fuel depot is unrelated to the Druzhba facility.

Here is the Mazyr refinery in Belarus.
51.905305°, 29.327970°
It is downstream (SW) of Bryansk and the Druzhba mainline pipeline enters a tank farm (storage facility) NW of refinery. (orange line)

There is a mainline #Druzhba pumping station/storage facility with at least some FRT - Floating Roof Tanks (3 circles on the right) and unknown status of other circles visible.
Could they be underground FRTs attempting to conceal visiblity???

What would it take to ignite a FRT (circled in image)?
Not much, direct hit to top would be best.
A light steel geodesic rain structure covers it with highly flammable vapors inside... "confined space".
Internal floating roof, floats atop the oil, rise/fall with oil level.

Where might the crude oil from the facility go by rail?
Points north & northwest; i.e., refineries near #Moscow and #StPetersberg or exported to refineries in the 3 Baltic countries, but unlikely Belarus as Mazyr is pipeline connected.
Also possible & likely... 🇷🇺#Kaliningrad

Although dated, this map of Russian refineries and chemical industry facilities and their primary products will help us understand which locations in RU could receive crude oil (from Druzhba - "Friendship" pipeline) by rail.
