ButanGas Romania has estimated an increase in its 2008 turnover to 100 million euros, up more than 46 per cent on its 2007 turnover of 68.3 million euros.
Florin Preda, the company’s general manager, said: “We estimate that the turnover of ButanGas Romania will exceed 100 million euros. This increase is due to both increased gas volumes sold and higher gas prices.”
According to company estimates, ButanGas has an 18 per cent share of Romania’s domestic lpg market – 14 per cent of which is bottled gas, 34 per cent bulk and 18 per cent autogas.
ButanGas Romania is part of the ButanGas Group, which operates in ten European and North African countries. It currently owns the only maritime lpg terminal in Romania at Midia N_vodari.
