An independent audit was conducted at the Austrian lube-manufacturing plant of OOO LLK-International (a wholly-owned OAO LUKOIL subsidiary) to determine its compliance with the standards of the German Association of the Automotive Industry. As a result of the audit, the plant was given the highest category, A, which shows its status as a preferred supplier of leading German auto manufacturers. The certificate entitles the LUKOIL plant to supply lubes to assembly facilities and assembly lines. 

“LLK-International is Russia’s only lube-manufacturing company whose plant was certified as complying with the standards of the influential German Association of the Automotive Industry. In future, we intend to certify more of our oil-manufacturing plants, both in Russia and abroad,” Maxim Donde, General Director of OOO LLK-International, commented.
