– Europe: retail distribution volumes of LPG reached 78,000 tonnes. Volumes achieved in France, which represents 46%, were up 2.4%, revealing further market share gains in the main segments: bulk, LPG-fuel and bottled. The process of integrating the European subsidiaries acquired in mid-2007 has continued, and in the first quarter represented 49,000 tonnes of LPG distribution, o/w 42,000 tonnes of retail distribution.

– Caribbean region (Antilles – French Guiana – Bermuda): Volumes sold total 61,000 tonnes and m3, broken down into 6,000 tonnes of LPG and 55,000 m3 of petroleum products: network of service stations and direct sale of marine diesel, fuel oil, lubricants and bitumen. The period was notable for the continued expansion of the service-station network and further market share gains.

– In Africa, retail distribution volumes of LPG grew 6.5% (22,000 tonnes). Morocco was responsible for half of African volumes, with growth of 8% moving in the right direction. Bulk Liquid Storage: Rubis Terminal

Revenue for the branch grew 33%, along with strong revenue growth in the petroleum products trading business (50%). This trading business typically makes only a marginal contribution to the company’s overall earnings.

The main activity of the RUBIS TERMINAL division, bulk storage, continued to grow with revenues up 5%. Petroleum revenues were stable compared with the high levels of the first quarter of 2007. We have also seen strong growth in foodstuffs (edible oils and molasses) and a good start for fertiliser and chemicals.
