For the first time, a shipment of diesel fuel produced by Marathon Petroleum Company arrived in Ukraine. Fuel was imported by the company “Ukrpaletsistem”.
“A tanker with a deadweight of 100,000 tons was received at the port of Hamburg, from where we pick up the product with smaller tankers of 30,000 tons and take it to our terminal in Poland. This first batch has already started arriving in Ukraine,” UPG said.
American diesel has already arrived at UPG gas stations.
“As far as I can remember, this is the first case in history of American oil products coming to us. This is a very symbolic event, because it shows how the market of Ukraine and Europe is being transformed as a result of anti-Russian sanctions. This is the best illustration of the destruction of myths about the unreality of life without Russian oil products,” said Serhiy Kuyun, director of the “A-95” Consulting Group.
