The drones would not likely need to take out the whole facility. If the drones were particularly targeted, which they almost certainly were, then I can imagine they could take out a particular critical piece of infrastructure that could cause significant disruption.
Well, there can be some redundancy, and some parts are harder to replace than others. Just going off of of what I know, I’d target a big pipe or heating/cooling systems. A distillation tower or single chemical reactor could be switched around.

But yeah, 20% is a lot for sure.
I don’t think they need to be particularly targeted, any part of the processing facility that is damaged is going to stop production until fixed.

They have to be targeted. They wouldn’t shut the whole facility down if the bomb landed in the remote employee parking lot.
But I didn’t see that it’s likely that Iran wouldn’t target their strikes. They clearly have the capability. Hit the targets that maximize disruption.
When I said processing facility I don’t mean the parking lot or the offices, but the industrial part.
