Tamoil
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tamoil is a trading name of the Oilinvest B.V. Group, an oil company based in the Netherlands and set up by the Libyan state. Oilinvest's activities under the Tamoil brand, mainly in Europe and Africa, include the supply, trading and refinement of crude oil and the sale of refined oil products. In 2004 Tamoil operated almost 3000 petrol stations in Europe and over 150 in Africa. [1]
Tamoil is the shirt sponsor of Italian football (soccer) club Juventus. Under the current sponsorship agreement, covering the period from July 2005 to June 2010, the Tamoil logo appears on Juventus players' shirts in all competitions, replacing a previous deal which covered only European and domestic cups. It is the most expensive shirt sponsorship agreement in European football, costing Tamoil €110 million. There is an option to extend the deal for a further five years for an additional €130 million.
