ST PETERSBURG (Reuters) - Vagit Alekperov, president of Russia's Lukoil, said on Thursday he thought financial losses suffered by his company from contamination of the Russian Druzhba pipeline earlier this year were insignificant, TASS news agency reported.

Russian oil flows via the Druzhba pipeline were temporarily suspended in April after contaminated oil entered the system.
