A large Russian refinery went to the new owners

5
The Russian company Sokar Energoresurs acquired an 80% stake in the Antipinsky Oil Refinery, becoming the owner of the oil fields in the Orenburg Region.





As you know, 60% of Sokar Energoresurs controls the Cyprus offshore Socar Russia Investments Ltd, and the remaining 40% is controlled by Sberbank of Russia.

Recall that the Antipinsky Oil Refinery is the largest independent oil refinery in the Russian Federation. It is located in the Tyumen region in the industrial zone of the city of Tyumen. Its capacity is 9 million tons of oil per year.

The founder of the plant Dmitry Mazurov created his business with the help of credit funds from Sberbank, so the property of the plant was pledged by Sberbank. And, ultimately, Sberbank became one of the co-owners of the enterprise.

In November 2018, Sberbank replaced the general director of the Antipinsky Oil Refinery, taking control of the plant from Dmitry Mazurov. In April 2019, the plant ceased operation, and on May 20, the Antipinsky Oil Refinery filed a bankruptcy lawsuit. The specified amount of debt amounted to 346 billion rubles.

Now the new owners plan to launch the enterprise and provide domestic and foreign markets with supplies of refined petroleum products. If their plans come true, another powerful player will reappear on the Russian oil products market.

    Either I'm D-y-cancer, or skis do not go? "60% of Sokar Energoresurs is controlled by the Cypriot offshore Socar Russia Investments Ltd, and the remaining 40% are controlled by Sberbank of Russia." So Sokar Energoresurs is 60% NOT Russian, but Cypriot! And this is without taking into account the foreign holders of Sberbank shares ...
    And what is pEREmoga?

      Peremoga that the plant is bankrupt and is currently not working. Sokar Energy Resource is a joint venture of the Azerbaijan State Oil Company. (SOCAR - State Oil Company of Azerbaijan Republic)
      Will Sokar buy this plant, the question, apparently, resolved. But there it is necessary to pour in loot and loot. Debt of 5 billion greens. Only Sberbank 3 billion. The factory has not been working since April. In short, these are just those investments in the Russian Federation about which the economic bloc of the government is so crying.
      And here is some more food for thought

      State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR) considers investors to join Antipinsky Oil Refinery project after an audit of assets as part of established corporate procedures and operational performance evaluations.
      --------
      Key challenges for new owners at this stage are the launch of the plant and ensuring its smooth operation, the supply of petroleum products to the domestic market and their export, maintaining stable tax revenues to the federal and regional budgets.

      On May 18, Russia's largest independent Antipinsky Oil Refinery sent a declaration of bankruptcy to the Tyumen Arbitration Court, a plant representative said. This information was confirmed by a court representative. The reason for bankruptcy is that the refinery cannot pay on debts and current loans.
      -------
      “The main task for the management of the Antipinsky Oil Refinery is to preserve jobs and provide social benefits even during the bankruptcy procedure,” said Maxim Andriasov, general director of the plant. How he plans to do this in bankruptcy, he does not specify.

      Thanks should be Dmitry Mazurov

      A source familiar with the situation told Interfax that the plant's guarantees with Sberbank were not agreed in violation of the credit documentation. Also, the bank's funds were spent not only to cover losses from the tax maneuver, but also to maintain the standard of living of the founder of the Novy Potok group, Dmitry Mazurov, who uses yachts and private jets, the source said. The Antipinsky Oil Refinery was previously owned by Novy Stream.

    There will be another "big player" - how optimistic.
    The previous owner, apparently, "played enough" and he got tired of doing serious business. The yachts are bought, the palaces are built, the responsibility is minimum.

    According to the principle, Dumb and dumber, explain what the native state will receive from this? The most powerful refinery - it looks like some kind of scam. Gasoline will not be cheaper from this, only if the yacht of one oligarch goes to another, what good is the Russian citizen? prices rise for fuel and stuff?
