11.18.2009 - NEWS
North Sea Petroleum Holding BV (North Sea Petroleum) and Fluvia Holding BV have reached agreement with Royal Vopak N.V. to fully acquire the Vopak terminal in Basle, Switzerland. After the take over the terminal will be operated under the name Rhytank. The tank terminal - with a capacity of 350,000 m³ and a throughput of 1 million tons per year - is one of the largest independent storage and transhipment facilities in Europe for the import and distribution of petroleum products (gasoline, fuel oil, diesel and jet fuel) and chemical products (methanol, toluene, MTBE, RBHC).

Peter Nohlmans, CEO of North Sea Petroleum stated: “Switzerland is an important market with growth potential. The take over of the terminal in Basle is therefore a logic next step in our international expansion strategy. Our total storage capacity now exceeds 700,000 m³. This expansion provides economies of scale and a reinforcement of our market positions.

Rick van Westenbrugge, CEO of Fluvia stated: The tank terminal in Basle strengthens the already good market position of Fluvia with respect to oil import logistics in Switzerland. With this tank terminal, we can now offer to our Swiss clientele new logistic solutions in combination with our fleet of barges and tank containers.
