Gazpromneft-Lubricants today announced that it has resumed regular marine oils bunkering in the sea port of Ust-Luga.

"The ice-free port of Ust-Luga is one of the key ports in the Baltic Sea basin. Therefore, twelve-month supply of high-quality marine lubricants in the port is especially important for Russian and foreign shipowners," said the company.

Bulk lubricating products deliveries at the port are carried out by the Gazpromneft-Zuid bunker barge.

Gazpromneft-Lubricants notes that it provides a complete range of both bulk and packaged oils supply services at Ust-Luga.

"Currently our service covers all ports of the Baltic basin, including the port of Kaliningrad," said Roman Miroshnichenko, Head of marine lube oils business at Gazpromneft-Lubricants.

"Improving the service quality for the marine lubricants supply in Ust-Luga, Gazpromneft-Lubricants creates the comfortable business environment and thereby increases the attraction of the port for Russian and foreign shipowners."

In October, Gazpromneft Marine Bunker LLC (Gazpromneft) announced that it had made its first ship delivery of lube oil to a Chevron Corporation (Chevron) operated tanker at Ust-Luga.
