In Volyn, as in the country as a whole, the situation on the petroleum products market, according to Anatoliy Volodin, who heads the regional territorial department of the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine, is tense but not as critical as in other regions of Ukraine. Mr. Volodin also reported that at the beginning of last week, about 20 gas stations in Volyn were not selling high-octane gasoline, and if they were selling it, then only by smart cards, coupons, or 10 liters at a time. This primarily, according to him, applies to the gas stations of the "Volyn Fuel Company," "Mavex," and "Ukrnafta." \n \nAnatoliy Volodin voiced the reasons which, in his opinion, caused this situation – these are the general increase in the use of high-octane gasoline in the state and the export of gasoline from border regions abroad. And although now, according to Volodin, gasoline has begun to be sold in full volumes at another 15 filling stations of the "Alfa-Lutsk" enterprise, almost 10 gas stations in the region do not sell high-octane gasoline at retail. Replenishment of fuel reserves at storage facilities can be expected around Wednesday. As of today, according to Anatoliy Volodin, gasoline in the region is available only at gas stations; fuel storage facilities are empty. Due to the fact that in the Kamin-Kashyrskyi district the gasoline situation is the most difficult, at the committee's request, "Ukrnafta" sent its internal reserves there. The "Alfa-Lutsk" enterprise acted similarly with regard to Volodymyr-Volynskyi and Ustyluh. And in order to reduce the export of gasoline across the border to Poland and Belarus, Mr. Volodin advised border guards to check more thoroughly vehicles that are not adapted for this. \n
