“Ukrnafta” is preparing for the fall-winter period amid ongoing Russian attacks on civilian oil and gas production infrastructure.
Bogdan Kukura, Chairman of the Board of Ukrnafta, and Serhiy Fedorenko, Acting Chairman of the Board of Naftogaz of Ukraine, visited Ukrnafta’s production units in northern and eastern Ukraine.
“The main focus is on people’s safety and the protection of production facilities. Our top priority is to safeguard our personnel and minimize the consequences of possible attacks,” said Bogdan Kukura, Chairman of the Board of JSC “Ukrnafta.”
During the visit, they inspected shelters for employees, warning systems, and the availability of personal protective equipment. They also specifically checked the security status of production facilities and the units’ readiness for operations during the fall and winter months.
The company continues to strengthen security measures and prepare its production infrastructure to operate under conditions of constant threats. The primary objective is to protect people and ensure the stable operation of production facilities.
JSC “Ukrnafta” is Ukraine’s largest oil producer and operates the country’s largest national network of gas stations—UKRNAFTA. In 2024, the company began managing Glusco’s assets. In 2025, it finalized a deal with Shell Overseas Investments BV to acquire the Shell network in Ukraine. In total, it operates nearly 700 gas stations.
The company is implementing a comprehensive program to resume operations and modernize the format of the gas stations in its network. Since February 2023, it has been issuing its own fuel vouchers and “NAFTACard” cards, which are sold to legal entities and individuals through Ukrnafta-Postach LLC.
The largest shareholder of Ukrnafta is NJSC Naftogaz of Ukraine, with a stake of 50% + 1 share.
In November 2022, the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine decided to transfer to the state the portion of the company’s corporate rights that belonged to private owners; this portion is now managed by the Ministry of Defense.
