On December 25, Tkachuk completed his work at Ukrnafta, which he announced on his social media pages.
“Today I am finishing my work at Ukrnafta and would like to sincerely thank everyone with whom I had the honor to work over the past three years. It was a difficult and responsible stage — both for the company and for me personally. Throughout this time, Ukrnafta operated under conditions of a full-scale war, fulfilling a critical role for the country’s economy and energy security,” he wrote.
According to NaftoRynok, Serhii Lahno, who served as Acting CEO of UGV for a year and a half, will continue working at the company as Chief Engineer.
