Thus, Rompetrol would become the first oil company involved in the energy market. The largest company in Romania, Petrom, is to operate a gas power plant as of 2011.
Rompetrol also plans to start electricity production with a thermal power plant. “We have a plan and we intent to launch transactions this year. We are currently studying the market, because there are many closed contracts for 2008,” company sources added.
Rompetrol was recently granted a license to supply electricity for two years.
