News - VTTI expands in Europoort Bookmark and Share

28/5/10: Vitol Tank Terminals International (VTTI) has acquired additional land and facilities adjoining its Euro Tank Terminal within the Port of Rotterdam’s Europoort.
 

As well as barge jetties and warehouse capacity, the purchase from De Rijke Group affiliate EVET gives the Euro Tank Terminal increased access to rail and truck loading facilities and the capability to store low flash products.
 

“When we announced last week our new partnership with MISC of Malaysia, we described it as allowing us to grow our terminal business even faster in key trading locations,” says VTTI CEO Rob Nijst.
 

“There is no better example of this growth than the plans that we have at Rotterdam, a key part of which is this acquisition.”
 

“Our ambition is to grow the Rotterdam terminal to over 1m m3 of storage with state-of-the-art facilities that provide customers with what they want to the highest safety and environmental standards.”
