OREANDA-NEWS. July 18, 2011. TNK-BP has signed a direct contract with Grupa Lotos SA to delivery 20 thousand tonnes of Russian export blend crude oil (Rebco) to the Polish company in July 2011, reported the press-centre of TNK-BP.

In June 2011, TNK-BP signed a three-month direct supply contract with the Polish company PKN Orlen.

“We consider Poland to be one of the most stable and profitable outlets for Rebco sales and we intend to take any necessary measures to continue to supply to this destination,” commented Jonathan Kollek, vice president for sales and logistics at TNK-BP. “Taking into account that priority in the export graphic allocation is given to companies who sell directly to end users, TNK-BP is the only Russian company that has signed direct contracts with both of Poland’s largest oil consumers.”
