MOSCOW, Mar 1 (PRIME) -- The Federal Antimonopoly Service plans to issue an order to oil major Rosneft to sell some fuel stations of recently acquired affiliate Bashneft in April–June, Director Anatoly Golomolzin told reporters on Wednesday.
“Materials for analysis were prepared at the beginning of February, this analysis in being done by territorial offices. This (order) will appear approximately in the second quarter. In principle, we do not expect big changes. Preliminary analysis shows that the zones of the two companies did not overlap a lot,” Golomolzin said.
