In September 2026, Ukrnafta became the largest importer of diesel fuel to Ukraine for the first time, supplying 105.3 thousand metric tons of the fuel, according to data from the A-95 Consulting Group and its analysis by the Experts Club.
The company’s import volume was 3.3 times higher than in September of last year.
OKKO took second place among the largest importers with 57,500 metric tons, while UPG came in third with 47,000 metric tons.
The top five also included AT Energo Trade with 44,000 metric tons and WOG with 42,500 metric tons.
Next came ZPEK with 29,400 metric tons, “Paid” with 28,900 metric tons, D.Trading with 26,500 metric tons, “Martin Trade” with 18,100 metric tons, and “Gaztrim” with 12,000 metric tons.
Among the largest players, the ZPEK Group showed the most significant growth compared to last year. Over the first nine months of 2026, its imports rose by 228% and approached 250,000 metric tons.
Total diesel fuel imports into Ukraine in September amounted to 537,000 metric tons, which is 21% less than a year earlier.
According to Serhiy Kuyun, director of the A-95 Consulting Group, changes among the largest importers are occurring against the backdrop of logistics transformation, high volatility in global prices, and the need for companies to establish more stable supply channels.
“The fuel market continues to face unprecedented challenges caused by Russian attacks. Importers are actively developing new logistics channels and expanding their vehicle fleets,” notes “A-95”.
The A-95 consulting group has been researching the Ukrainian motor fuel market for over two decades and monitors prices, supplies, and market infrastructure.
OKKO maintained its leadership among the largest importers of automotive gasoline into Ukraine, importing 51,000 metric tons of fuel in September 2026, according to data from a special study by the A-95 Consulting Group and calculations by the Experts Club analytical center.
Thus, OKKO accounted for about 35% of total gasoline imports in September, which amounted to 145,000 metric tons.
From January through September, the company imported 375,000 metric tons of gasoline—about 30% of the total volume of shipments to Ukraine since the beginning of the year, which reached 1.26 million metric tons.
Ukrnafta took second place among importers in September with a volume of 19,500 metric tons. WOG recorded virtually the same figure—19,000 metric tons.
UPG imported 15,900 metric tons of gasoline. Thus, the four largest companies—OKKO, Ukrnafta, WOG, and UPG—accounted for a total of 105,400 metric tons, or nearly 73% of all gasoline imports into the country for the month.
Next came BRSM-Nafta with 5,300 metric tons, Avantage with 3,400 metric tons, BVS and SOCAR with 2,600 metric tons each, KLO with 2,300 metric tons, and VST with 1,900 metric tons. Other companies collectively imported 21,300 metric tons.
In September, gasoline imports into Ukraine fell by 5% compared to August—to 145,000 metric tons. The A-95 Consulting Group attributes the decline in supplies to a seasonal drop in consumption and this year’s record-high retail gasoline prices, which encouraged drivers to conserve fuel.
At the same time, compared to September 2025, imports rose by 3%, and over the first nine months of this year—by 15%, to 1.26 million metric tons.
