Transneft operates a transportation network consisting of more than 30,000 miles of pipeline, about 390 oil refilling (pump) stations, and more than 830 reservoirs capable of storing more than 15 million cu. meters of petroleum products. The company transports about 93% of the oil produced in Russia.
