Sibneft
In 1995, Abramovich and Boris Berezovsky acquired the controllingi Interest in the large oil company Sibneft. Berezovsky was an associate
of President Boris Yeltsin.
Each partner paid USD 100 million for half of the company and rapidly turned it into billions.

He also owns the gas turbine powered yacht Sussurro.
And he owned the expedition yacht Luna.
He also owned the yacht Le Grand Blue, but he gave her to his friend Eugene Shvidler in 2006.
Early 2014 Abramovich sold a London
mansion for US$ 40 million to Tetra-Pack heir Hans Rausing.
In 2014 Abramovich sold Luna to Azerbaijani billionaire Farkhad
Akhmedov.
Akhmedov acquired his wealth through natural gas producer Northgas .
Akhemedov sold Northgas in 2012.
New Expedition Yacht We heard Abramovich is building a new private yacht , but we have not been able to identify the project.
UPDATE November 2018
We were told that Abramovich is the new owner of the Project Solaris.
Solaris is a 130 - 140 meter expedition
yacht.
She is under construction at Lloyd Werft in Bremen Germany.
We found an article in a German newspaper, more or less confirming this news. Production started in 2017,
which makes sense given the current status of the hull.
Lloyd Werft also built Abramovich’ previous expedition yacht Luna, which he sold to Farkhad Akhmedov
Abramovich Wife
He was married to Dasha Zhukova and they have two children.
Dasha comes from a rich family, her father is oligarch Alexander Zhukov.
Abramovich was married twice before, his first wife was Olga. That marriage was before he became rich.
His second wife Irina was a stewardess. She apparently received a US$ 300 million divorce settlement.
And is said to have received the yacht Sussurro as part of the settlement.
Divorce from Dasha
In August 2017 is was announced that Abramovich and Dasha will separate after a 10 year marriage.
But they will continue to work together in business. She will probably receive a divorce settlement of a few hundred
million.
