Polish oil concern Orlen will not renew the contract for the supply of russian oil, which expires in January 2023.
“The only existing contract for the supply of russian oil in 2023 will cease to operate after the introduction of sanctions, which we are ready for,” said the spokeswoman of the Polish oil concern Orlen, Edyta Olkovich.
According to her, now 70% of raw materials for all oil refineries of the group in Poland, the Czech Republic and Lithuania do not come from russia, while as of 2015 Orlen received almost 100% of raw oil from russian federation.
In 2021, the company’s clients imported almost 18 million tons of crude oil and oil products to Poland by sea. In 2023, the company expects to exceed the limit of 30 million tons.
