Belarusian freight ups July revenue, throughput of Klaipedos Nafta
Mindaugas Jusius, CEO at Klaipedos Nafta, said
the start of the second half of 2017 made him optimistic.
"In July, freight traffic via the oil terminal grew by nearly 22%,
mainly due to larger transit flows as a result of additional freight we managed
to attract. The period was also intense at the Klaipedos Nafta terminal's tank vehicle site," Jusius said in
a press release.
In July, crude throughput went up by 21.6% to 671,000 tons year-on-year,
degasification of liquefied natural gas (LNG) soared by 64% to 1.668 million
megawatt-hours and the company's revenue was up by 12.7% to 8.9 million euros.
The oil handling volume fell by 21% in January-July to 3.933 million tons
year-on-year, while LNG degasification declined by 36% to 6.536 million
megawatt-hours.
Over the period, Klaipedos Nafta's
revenue went down by 6.3% to 61.3 million euros, including a decline by 19.4%
to 20.8 million euros from oil product loading and other operations and an
increase by 2.3% to 40.5 million euros from LNG degasification.
