In the 1950-1960th years it was the petrochemical complex, largest in Europe, which received raw materials from crafts of the oil Romashkinsky field in Tatarstan on the pipeline Almetyevsk — Bitter and provided with raw materials petrochemical productions of Dzerzhinsk.

However with the collapse of the USSR in the industry the raw crisis connected with sharp decrease in oil production in the country begins. Gradually all Nizhny Novgorod complex of productions falls into decay, and from the beginning of privatization of the enterprise fall into hands of different owners. In 1996 on Petroleum chemical plant production stops. Only in the late nineties the Kstovo Petroleum chemical plant and the Dzerzhinsk Plant of oxide of ethylene and glycols integrate as a part of Neftekhim Ltd.
