The company has thereby exceeded its exchange trading target by almost one quarter and beaten its May result by more than 2.5 times.
For the first half of 2010 as a whole, TNK-BP sold 468,000 tones of fuel via exchange mechanisms, amounting to 11.2% of all its fuel sales in Russia. Volume during April and May suffered from a sharp drop in export prices.
TNK-BP is currently selling products from all its refineries, including Lisichansk (LINIK, Ukraine), via exchanges. These are exclusively light petroleum products and are mostly sold in the European part of Russia.
TNK-BP is aiming to trade at least 20% of its fuel volumes via exchanges during 2010.
