LUKoil Unlikely to Appeal

It doesn’t make sense to dispute the decision not to admit LUKoil to the tender for the Trebs and Titov oil fields, vice president Leonid Fedun said Wednesday. “It’s futile to argue with the state,” he said, adding that this was his personal opinion.

“It’s a great shame, of course, because we were technologically the best-prepared for this,” Fedun said.
