Dossier:

Formed in 1991, LUKOIL became first Russian oil company to begin offering shares to foreign investors. Merger of state-run oil production plants in Langepas, Uray and Kogalym, and two oil refinery plants in Volgograd and Perm, firmed the company. The initials of three Siberian cities gave the name of the company - LUKoil. The idea belonged to Ravil Maganov, director of Langepasneftegaz. Vagit Alekperov appreciated the idea and paid Maganov 300 roubles as an award.
