Tank Storage Facility

Terneuzen Tank Terminal BV manages independently owned tank farms in Netherlands, which are operated by our management and not owned by oil companies in Netherlands and our management charges all oil companies the necessary bills for storage and handling their products. Our tank farms are situated above the ground and while some are beneath the ground with support for successful discharges of products into heavy duty oil tankers and pipelines. We have large industrial amenities for the storage of oil and petroleum products before these products are formally transported to the end users or further to storage facilities.

Our farm’s tanks are positioned in various locations where ocean liners carrying products can discharge their cargo while some are technically attached to pipelines in other to draw our supplies through rails or barges and by heavy duty oil tankers. Most of our tank farms have heavy duty oil tankers operating from their grounds and these vehicles transport products to petrol stations or other users.

The products which reach our tank farms are from the refineries and suitable for delivery to customers because our tank farms are modern and comprise various types of tankage, pipelines, and gantries with a greater degree of automation as significant changes in depot operations.

Our tank farm utilizes Tank Storage Facilities in the Port of Rotterdam and in the Upper Baltic Sea Region of Primorsk Commercial Sea Port that allows for the simultaneous loading of Multiple vessel tankers with deadweight of up to 50 – 150 thousand tons with a capacity of up to 6,500 tons per hour in Primorsk Port, Ust Luga Port and the loading of multiple vessel tankers with dead-weight up to 75 thousand -to- 150 thousand tons with a capacity of up to 4,500 and 6,500 tons per hour in the port of Rotterdam

As global population and GDP are growing, the world’s demand for energy and chemicals is rising as well. We see a growing geographic imbalance between areas of production and areas of consumption of energy and petrochemicals. This has led to the transportation of oil, gas, and petrochemicals over longer distances around the world. At the same time, markets and product flows have constantly changed, in response to more ambitious climate change policies, to geopolitical and economic fluctuations and to the development of new energy sources and cleaner fuels. The result is a growing demand for storage and handling of bulk liquids and gases at key locations along global marine trade routes.

• Our Terminals and Tank locations vary from small gathering sites and large corporation storage units all across Rotterdam and Rotterdam respectively, to the largest terminal in the world. Our tanks range in size from 40 to 60 feet high, and 150 to 270 feet in diameter, holding anywhere from 57,000 to 575,000 barrels of petroleum products. The size of the tank is determined by the design requirements of pipeline and refinery customers.

• Floating roofs on storage tanks are made with primary and secondary seals to contain vapours. These seals are located near the surface of the oil and reduce emissions as well as risk of ignition.

• State-of-the-art systems ranging from radar that tracks tank levels to mixers are used to maintain product integrity during breakout storage.
