Nafta Polska may sell chemical works to PKN Orlen

However, Nafta Polska is thinking of selling the works to PKN Orlen rather than to the German investor as this would consolidate the Polish chemical sector. Another reason for this change might be numerous other investments of PCC such as in chemical plants in the Industrial and Technological Park in Płock, even though the representatives of the company assure that it can easily cope with the purchase of Tarnów and Kędzierzyn shares. Still, PCC, said to have made a far better offer than Anwil, which belongs to PKN Orlen, would be dependent on Orlen as far as the supply of raw material is concerned. According to Wojciech Lubiewa-Wieleżyński, the vice-president of Nafta Polska, regardless of the final result of the negotiations, the integration of the sector is certain. (Puls Biznesu, p. 4) A.M
