The Moscow-based company said March 5 it will invest as much as $3 billion this year to upgrade its refining and petrochemicals production, which will come from Lukoil‘s own cash flow. „It can’t be ruled out that in time, we will need to attract financing for one project or another,” Dmitry Dolgov, a spokesman for Lukoil in Moscow, said in a telephone interview. „Our finance people are constantly in contact with Western banking institutions.” (Bloomberg)
