Shell Exploration Company, part of Shell Oil, has pulled out of the tender to invest in the modernization of Galychyna Refinery (HANZ) due to high operating costs and a short implementation timeline, according to the refinery. Galychyna Refinery’s current modernization plans call for USD 300-380 mln in investments. Companies still participating in the tender are the Israeli Baran Group, the Czech-American company Koch Glear and two Russian companies.
