OAO Rosneft (Rosneft) group company RN-Bunker LLC has begun operating its latest bunkering tanker, PortNews reports.

The tanker will operate at Tuapse port providing bunkering facilities to be performed by Rosneft companies RN-Bunker LLC and Rosneft Marine.

The 7,000 tonne RN Tuapse is the fifth bunker tanker to be put into operation jointly by RN-Bunker LLC and Rosnefteflot CJSC since 2011, according to the report.

The new tanker expands RN-Bunker LLC's bunkering activities covering the Far East, Black Sea and Northwest Basins as well as key river ports within Russia.

Earlier this year Rosneft reported a jump in bunker volumes for the group.
