The club was founded in the spring of 2013[1] under the name FC Ahrofirma Pyatykhatska Volodymyrivka[2] because the team sponsorship was one of the largest agricultural enterprises of Kirovohrad region.

The club in 2014 competed in the Ukrainian Football Amateur League and were beaten finalists in the championship game.

In February 2015, the club was renamed to Inhulets. The club again competed in the 2015 Amateur Championship but during the season the club entered the professional ranks and joined the PFL entering into the Ukrainian Second League. Inhulets Petrove continued its participation among amateurs with its second team, FC Inhulets-2 Petrove.[4]

In their first season, the club were promoted to the Ukrainian First League.[5]

In 2015 Inhulets competed at the 2015 UEFA Regions' Cup as "AF Pyatykhatska" representing Ukraine.
