About Rompetrol Rafinare

Rompetrol Rafinare is the largest asset held by the KMG International Group in Romania. The company operates the two refineries of the Group - Petromidia of Navodari, county of Constanta, together with the only petrochemical division of the country, and Vega Refinery of Ploiesti, which keeps the local refining industry at high standards.

The strategy employed by the Group included investments of more than USD 1.4 billion in development of the refining and petrochemical business lines, as well of the infrastructure supporting crude oil sourcing and delivery of finished products across Romania and the Black Sea region.

These retrofitting programmes were undertaken and carried out starting with 2008, in a local and international context marked by the financial crisis, with the oil and gas industry being among the most affected.

Results 9 months 2024

Rompetrol Rafinare, a KMG International Group (Rompetrol) member company, recorded in the first 9 months of 2024 a gross turnover of 3.57 billion dollars and an operational result (EBITDA) of about 125 million dollars, an indicator that measures the company's profitability before deducting depreciation, interest, fees and taxes.

The financial results were influenced by the planned shutdown of the Petromidia refinery, between March and May 2024, but also by other factors, independent of its activity - the volatility of quotations for raw materials (crude oil, biocomponent) and petroleum products, respectively the evolution of refining margins, recorded at international level.

The company reconfirms its commitment to support stability in the energy sector, almost 70% of the total fuels obtained between January and September 2024 being directed to the domestic market.

Rompetrol Rafinare is one of the largest contributors to the state budget, 456 million dollars in Q3 2024, respectively 1.12 billion dollars paid in the first 9 months of 2024. Of the total, 30.3 million dollars represents the solidarity contribution for 2023, and 6.1 million dollars represents the turnover tax, related to the first half of 2024.
