Lukoil boosts its Bulgarian bunker sales

LUKOIL-Bulgaria Bunker says it has increased its year-on-year bunker sales by ten percent for the year of 2012, Ship & Bunker reports. The growth comes despite what it described as severe ice conditions at the beginning of this year.

Earlier in 2012 the physical supplier acquired the bunker tanker Neftyanik-1, and according to its website now has a fleet of five bunkering vessels. LUKOIL-Bulgaria Bunker says it provides bunkering service in Bulgaria's Ruse, Silistra, Vidin, Lom, Burgas, the oil port of Rosenets and Varna, in Constanta, Romania and Serbia-based Kladovo, as well as at the 61th mile of the Danube.

In September, fellow bunkering company LUKOIL-BUNKER in Russia said it increased bunker sales in the North West Russian ports of St. Petersburg and Ust-Luga.
