Rompetrol is expanding its presence this year with 13 new fuel stations in Romania, located in areas of interest throughout the country and on high-speed roads. The first six stations are in various stages of construction, with completion expected in April and opening in June-July, the company announced.
„It is a complex project, because we are carrying it out in three distinct areas simultaneously, but we benefit from the support of specialized teams with experience in such works. The new stations will increase Rompetrol's presence in areas of strategic importance for transportation, in line with the development of the national infrastructure. We continue to develop the network and we are open to opportunities that can add value to the national distribution segment”, said Laurentiu Colțănel, Director of Network Planning and Development at KMG International (Rompetrol).
The 6 stations will create a total of more than 130 new jobs and will each be equipped with three multi-product pumps, one high-speed and one AdBlue (a special additive used in diesel engines to comply with the Euro 6 standard) pump, LPG skid, as well as four 150 kW charging stations. The stations will integrate the hei concept, and the actual space on which each station will be located is 273 square meters.
Thus, two stations are being built in Mures county (Sânpaul locality), on the A3 highway, a short distance from Târgu Mureș municipality, which will have 36 parking spaces for cars and 11 parking spaces for heavy vehicles.
Work is also advanced on the construction of two new stations in Brasov county, on the bypass of Brasov, which have parking capacity for 59 cars and 22 heavy-duty vehicles.
Two other fuel stations are under construction in Suceava - Suceava Ipotești (on National Road 2, at the entrance to Suceava) and Suceava Scheia (on the bypass). Together, the two stations have a parking capacity for 50 cars and 20 heavy-duty vehicles.
At the same time, work has started on seven other new Rompetrol stations in locations across the country - the Bucharest Ring Road, Ovidiu (Constanța County), Iași, Bacău, Timișoara, as well as two stations on the exit/entry route to the Republic of Moldova, through the Albița Customs. These will generate around 130 jobs.
By expanding the range of services and products offered, supported by the possibility of charging electric cars and mobile applications, Rompetrol stations have evolved over the last 15 years, becoming service centers and energy providers for customers. Recently the mobile app dedicated to electric charging (Rompetrol EV-Charge*) was also launched, where real-time availability, fueling speeds and estimated waiting times can be consulted at all charging stations in its own network.
In 2023, Rompetrol has come, for the first time in Romania, with a new concept for the service spaces on the highways, integrating the fueling/AdBlue, the fast-charging stations for electric cars, the parking and relaxation areas, with a generous interior, with triple the average surface areas of the other Rompetrol stations.
Upon completion, the new stations will be taken over by Rompetrol Downstream, the retail division of KMG International Group in Romania.
At the end of September 2025, Rompetrol's distribution segment in Romania comprised 1,206 outlets, exclusively using fuels produced in the largest refinery in Romania - Petromidia Năvodari.
