Today Shell has 10 petrol stations in St Petersburg and plans to build some more, Interfax reported.
Shell won a tender in Moscow in 2003 for building petrol stations with alternative fuel in the frames of Moscow city program of alternative fuel management. The goal of this program is to substitute petroleum fuel of municipal transport with gas fuel.
