"Rosneft" acquires 16.67% in the PCK Raffinerie GmbH from the French Total, which owns the refineries in Schwedt, Germany. The deal was announced during the first visit to Moscow of the new head of Total Patrick Pauyanne, who replaced Christophe de Margerie, who died in Vnukovo a month ago. "The deal will strengthen the position in one of the most efficient oil refineries in Europe", - the head of "Rosneft" stated.
