'''FC Kalush''' ({{langx|uk|Футбольний клуб «Калуш»}}) was a [Ukrainian](/source/Ukraine) professional football club from [Kalush](/source/Kalush%2C_Ukraine), [Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast](/source/Ivano-Frankivsk_Oblast).

==History==
{{also|TESP (company)}}
The club was founded soon after [World War II](/source/World_War_II) as '''Khimik Kalush''' and in the Soviet competitions competed at regional level and KFK (amateur level). The club was reestablished in place of previously existed Polish club at the chemical plant [TESP](/source/TESP_(company)) that also was overtaken by Soviets. Khimik Kalush also was associated with the Soviet chemical and metallurgical association "Khlorvinil" that was expanded in 1961.

At KFK level the club competed until 1995, when as '''Khimik''' entered the [Druha Liha](/source/Ukrainian_Second_League). Its main sponsor "Khlorvinil" was reorganized as a state enterprise "Oriana". Later in 1995, Khimik renamed themselves to '''FC Kalush'''.

The club struggled at this level of competition. In 2001, "Oriana" and the Russian oil conglomerate [Lukoil](/source/Lukoil) created a joint venture "Lukor". In 2001 the club also renamed themselves to '''FC LUKOR Kalush''' and the new sponsorship immediately improved the status of the club. In 2002 Lukor already announced about its financial instability and filed for bankruptcy.<ref>Nesterov, D. ''[https://www.epravda.com.ua/publications/2012/11/16/344722/ Cookies for Alekperov (Пряники для Алєкперова)]''. Ekonomichna Pravda. 16 November 2012</ref><ref>[http://vikna.if.ua/news/category/kl/2018/01/29/80788/view A year of great privatization. The State Property Fund plans to sell "Oriana" (Рік великої приватизації. Фонд державного майна планує продати “Оріану”)]. Vikna. 29 January 2018</ref> In the next season the club won the [Druha Liha 2002–03](/source/Ukrainian_Second_League_2002-03) Group A championship. However, at the end of the season the club was bought out by neighboring club [FC Prykarpattya Ivano-Frankivsk](/source/FC_Spartak_Ivano-Frankivsk) and they were subsequently renamed and made into a reserve club.

The club renamed again to '''FC Spartak-2 Ivano-Frankivsk''' in 2004 and later in that year they were dissolved.

The club reformed in 2006 and played at the [Amateur level](/source/Ivano-Frankivsk_Oblast_FF).

On 17 January 2014, Lukor Kalush filed for bankruptcy and its liquidation.<ref>[https://www.kommersant.ru/doc/2388410 Lukor announced about its liquidation ("Лукор" объявил о ликвидации)]. Kommersant. 20 January 2014</ref>

After a break of over 10 years the club was readmitted to the [Professional Football League of Ukraine](/source/Professional_Football_League_of_Ukraine) for the [2018–19 Ukrainian Second League](/source/2018%E2%80%9319_Ukrainian_Second_League) competition.
