The Energy and Coal Industry Ministry of Ukraine coordinates the work on resumption of operation of Odesa oil refinery, but it is early to speak about the terms of its launch, Minister Volodymyr Demchyshyn has said.

"I think that it will take no less than several months…. However the working is being done," the minister said.

Earlier Ukrtransnafta CEO Mykola Havrylenko said that he discussed possibilities of supplying crude oil to Odesa oil refinery with Director General of Ukrtransnaftoproduct Oleksandr Horbunov. He said that the official request has not been sent.
