With Polish investments, «Unimot Ukraine» plans to build an oil base complex in the Lviv region – a terminal for oil products. For this purpose, three sections are being considered, which have the necessary area and railway accessibility, the press service of the Lviv regional state administration reported.
The new complex should ensure the acceptance of fuel tanks on a narrow railway track, for further discharge, storage and shipment to Ukrainian consumers by road and rail.

At the end of last year, the company announced its intention to implement the project. Then, two sites for future construction were considered. The first investment in the facility was to amount to 12 million euros and create four dozen jobs. Subsequently, the company stopped at one site. With the start of hostilities, the project was stopped, and now, its implementation of the oil depot construction is planned to resume.
It is noted that the company «Unimot Ukraine» from the first days of the war is actively involved in supporting the front. Already 500,000 litres of fuel have been directed to the needs of the army, and servicemen are also being helped by cars.
