Yavuz said Petkim was the foundation of all their investments and they had a master plan concerning it until 2030. He also stressed that a sale of shares bought on the stock market in 2009 and 2010 was possible.
"We have a 65 per cent stake in the company and consider a sale that would not bring the stake below 51 percent. The timing of a sale has not been decided but could be considered this year."
Last month, SOCAR Turkey announced that the company had decided to re-apply to the Borsa Istanbul (BIST) for the sale of Petkim shares. The sale was dismissed on June 8 due to certain reasons.
Previously SOCAR Turkey announced on the Public Disclosure Platform (KAP) that a 1.6 percent share of Petkim was to be sold, which was then worth a nominal value of TL 16 million.
