All 53 Trassa gas stations in the Moscow region have stopped operating as Gazprombank Leasing reclaims 57 stations leased to operator EuroTrans, including four outside the region, the Moscow Region Energy Ministry told Interfax.
Information from the network’s owner, relayed by the ministry to Interfax, put the number of workers on forced downtime at about 1,400. Two-thirds of their pay was accruing but remained unpaid because company accounts had been seized.
Interfax reported EuroTrans’s payment problems in early 2026, repeated technical coupon defaults from July and effective default across its public debt by early September. Sberbank filed a bankruptcy petition against the company in October.
Separately, The Moscow Times reported that Rosneft had restored gasoline purchase limits at some stations in several regions. It reported a 30-liter ceiling at urban stations and a 50-liter limit at highway outlets. In Moscow, the outlet said, Rosneft stations capped purchases at 50 liters per vehicle.
The Moscow Region Arbitration Court was scheduled to begin considering Sberbank’s petition Thursday, Nov. 12, according to the court docket cited by Interfax.
