Romanian Emergency Ordinance 19/2026 active: fuel commercial markups are capped at 2025 average levels during 1 April — 30 June 2026. This is why major networks (MOL, OMV, Lukoil, Socar, Gazprom) display a uniform nationwide price per brand. Real per-station variation remains at Rompetrol and independent stations.

Company fuel card 2026: Petrom vs OMV vs MOL vs Rompetrol

For a small fleet of 3 vehicles consuming 600 L per month, picking the right fuel card is the difference between 0 and 100+ RON saved every month. We compare Romania's four major networks (Petrom, OMV, MOL, Rompetrol) on seven essential criteria: discount, monthly fee, network size, single invoice, mobile app, international coverage and B2B support. The right answer depends on the profile — an urban courier has different needs than an international hauler — and this article helps you choose correctly.

Data collected on 1 May 2026 from the four networks' official B2B pages. Final discounts are negotiated by volume.

2. Petrom Fill&Go — broadest network

With 400+ stations in Romania, Petrom (part of OMV) has the most extensive network — useful for fleets travelling rural areas where other brands are absent. Typical discount is 0.05-0.12 RON/L, climbing to 0.18 RON/L for fleets above 10,000 L/month.

Recommended for: road haulage SRLs covering the whole country, regional courier agencies, companies with frequent rural travel.

Weakness: limited international coverage — for cross-border transport, MOL or OMV are stronger.

3. OMV Smart — premium and international

OMV runs about 150 stations in Romania (fewer than Petrom) but its DACH (Germany, Austria, Czech Republic) and CEE network is very solid — over 4,000 stations across Europe. Base discount is 0.07-0.15 RON/L plus extra reductions on car wash and shop purchases.

Recommended for: corporations operating internationally, hauliers driving West, managers with company cars on Bucharest-Vienna-Munich routes.

Weakness: smaller Romanian network forces pairing with a second card for rural areas.

4. MOL Group Card — built for CEE freight

MOL has 220 stations in Romania and a total network of 2,000+ across Central Europe (Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Croatia). Discount reaches 0.15 RON/L, and for freight MOL Bluecode offers weekly invoicing (easier on cash flow).

Recommended for: CEE hauliers (Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic), logistics firms, real-estate developers with western Romanian sites.

Weakness: Western European coverage limited; does not replace a pan-European DKV or UTA card.

5. Rompetrol Fill&Go — strong domestic pricing

Rompetrol (KMG International) operates around 280 stations with typical discounts of 0.05-0.12 RON/L. The main edge is a slightly lower base price than OMV/Petrom (by 0.03-0.07 RON/L) which, combined with the card discount, delivers a meaningful effective reduction.

Recommended for: regional Romania-focused firms, SMEs prioritizing low cost without complexity, taxi operators and car-rental businesses.

Weakness: selective international network (Bulgaria, Moldova, Georgia), but irrelevant for domestic transport.

6. Concrete savings calculation

Take a courier company with 5 vehicles, each consuming 250 L/month = 1,250 L total monthly. At the current diesel average of 8.40 RON/L (see today's diesel price):

Plus the administrative time saved — a single monthly invoice instead of 50-100 till receipts to gather.

7. Recommendations by profile
