Bunker firm expands its coverage in Romania.



Lukoil Bulgaria Bunker Ltd. has confirmed that it has begun supplying marine fuel at the Romanian port of Midia - a satellite port of Constantza.

Having obtained the required bunkering licence, the company says that it started carrying out deliveries at Midia in November using its own barge, Navi, formerly Unicom Energy.

In addition to Midia, Lukoil Bulgaria Bunker provides bunkering services at the Bulgarian ports of Rousse, Vidin, Silistra, Lom, Bourgas, Rosenets and Varna as well as at the 61st mile of the Danube river and Kladovo in Serbia.

The company has also been a physical supplier in Constantza - the largest bunkering port in Romania - since November 2010, where it supplies 380 centistoke (cst), 180 cst and low sulphur marine gasoil (MGO).

Lukoil Bunker LLC is a subsidiary of leading Russian oil company, Lukoil. The company specializes in the supply of marine fuels at the sea and river ports of Russia and Bulgaria.
