Economy and Industry of Khabarovsky Province

Khabarovsky Province has the largest industrial production and is the only region in the Russian Far East where machine building dominates industry (30%). Its huge specialized plants have produced more equipment than almost all of the rest of the Russian Far East put together. What's missing is product for the local market. Reorientation of the Province's heavy industry so far has failed to materialize. The Province's timber industry leads the Russian Far East in logging and lumber production. The Province has the biggest energy deficit in the Russian Far East. It has the Russian Far East's only iron and steel plant (capacity approximately 1 million tons per year) and both Russian Far East oil refineries with a capacity of 8 to 10 million tons per year. Major export items are timber, ferrous metals, and oil products. Major trading partners are Japan and Korea.
