Fuel importers focus on westbound supplies

We are mainly talking about imports from Poland, which owns its own refineries and ports.

The most powerful networks of gas stations strengthen the western vector of fuel imports due to growing tensions in the south. Enkorr reported this with reference to network representatives on Tuesday, August 15.

The main focus is on imports from Poland, which has its own refineries and ports. This direction of supplies was the first developed by Ukrainian traders when they developed a new supply system of oil products as a result of the Russian Federation’s massive invasion of Ukraine and the loss of 100% of the sources of supplies before the war oil products.

According to WOG team leader Andrey Pivovarsky, the direction of deliveries from Poland remains a priority. Thanks to the joint efforts of the Ukrainian and Polish governments, a working group was created to strengthen the coordination of the fuel supply process. It is especially important to expand the capacity for the transshipment of petroleum products from the European route to the Ukrainian one.

In particular, new operational changes were introduced at individual transshipment points, which significantly increased the rhythm of transshipment.

“Currently, all participants in deliveries – traders and railway workers of the same country – are well coordinated, there are no complaints,” said the top manager of WOG.

Among the new projects in the northern direction, WOG’s cooperation with the largest private oil trader in Poland – the UNIMOT holding – for the supply of American diesel fuel should be noted.

UNIMOT itself in July 2023 started the wholesale sale of diesel fuel in Ukraine, importing, according to operational data, 4 thousand tons of diesel fuel.

The largest Ukrainian player, OKKO, is holding contracts in northern and western Europe on high alert. In 2022, he implemented a complex supply route – from the Netherlands. An integrated logistics scheme was put in place, which involved transporting water from Rotterdam to the German port of Speyr, followed by loading onto rail tank cars.

“It is a long and expensive road, the cost of fuel is high. After overcoming the crisis of 2022, we thought about abandoning the source of imports, but decided that it was strategically correct to hide it in our basket,” said Yury Kuchabsky, Vice President of Galneftegaz.

According to him, the company is assessing the risks in the south and has already agreed with suppliers to increase options through safe ports, in particular, in Constanta.

As for the northern direction, OKKO, in addition to importing American diesel fuel, bought Swedish diesel fuel in the summer.

The third number in the rating of diesel importers – UPG – also plans to increase supplies in the Polish direction, having completed an investment project to increase terminal capacity in Szczecin.

“Right now, we can load one train per day (1800 tons – ed.). After the investment project, the capacity will increase to 4-5 trains per day, or up to 250 thousand tons per month,” the company said.

Remember that from July 1, VAT on fuel at the rate of 20% ​​was restored, which was in effect before the start of the war, and from March 2022 it is paid at the level of 7%. In addition, the previous excise rate began to operate.

Meanwhile, in August, the price of petroleum continued to rise. The Cabinet believes that in general, after the return of pre-war taxes, diesel should rise in price by 8 Hryvnia, and gasoline – by 11 Hryvnia.
