Hellenic Petroleum SA issues tender

Hellenic Petroleum SA, Greece?s largest refiner, issued a tender on Wednesday to sell a cargo of gasoline, according to two people with knowledge of the matter.

The company is offering 30,000 metric tons for loading from its Aspropyrgos refinery, near Athens, from September 27 to 30, said the people, declining to be identified because the information is confidential. The tender closes on Thursday.

Hellenic Petroleum?s 100,000 barrel-a-day Elefsina refinery exported its first fuel cargo after an upgrade at the plant was completed at the end of August, a company official said today by phone, declining to be identified citing policy.

A shipment of 30,000 tons of gasoil was made on September 10, the official said, without saying who the buyer was or its destination.
