SOCAR created gas company in Ukraine
SOCAR’s representation in Ukraine has registered a new company led by Yekaterina Tamrazova for wholesale and retail sale of liquefied gas, reported Ukrainian mass media.
SOCAR LPG was registered in early July 2016 in Cherkassy city.
The new company has been founded by Galizkaya Fuel Company Business and SOCAR Ukraine Trade House.
The new company will be in charge of wholesale and retail sale of liquefied gas.
Tamrazova said that creation of the new juridical person is connected with strengthening of the gas department in the structure of SOCAR’s Ukrainian representation.
The new company had a debut at the last auction of Ukrgasdobycha on August 4, 2016. At the auctions SOCAR bought 42 tons of liquefied gas for the name of the juridical person SOCAR LPG.
SOCAR representation was opened in Ukraine in 2008. The network of the company in Ukraine includes 57 petrol stations and two oil bunkers Baku 1 and Ganja. Yekaterina Tamrazova was in charge of the liquefied gas department in the SOCAR Ukraine Trade House company.—0—
