Gunvor Completes Financing to Support Novorossiysk Fuel Oil Terminal

LLC Novorossiysk Fuel Oil Terminal ("NFT"), which is jointly owned by Gunvor Group ("Gunvor") and PJSC Novorossiysk Commercial Sea Port ("NCSP"), has successfully closed a secured 7-year USD $110 million credit facility (the "Facility") from ZAO Raiffeisenbank.
