The terminal will help to meet the huge demand for storage capacity in the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp (ARA) region. The Port of Amsterdam plays an important international role in the ARA region as a logistics hub for gasoline and related product flows between Europe, North America and Asia. With the growing geographical imbalance between supply and demand, the new Vopak terminal will enable both existing and new customers to strengthen their positions. A substantial proportion of the total storage capacity has already been leased on a long-term basis from the completion date.
The terminal will have two marine jetties handling ocean-going vessels of up to 120,000 DWT and eight berths for coasters and barges of up to 20,000 DWT.
