October 23, 2017 [TankTerminals.com & PJK International] - In this article we would like to explain PJK’s tank terminal commercial performance model and why this model offers essential insights into tank storage demand drivers.
Intro PJK’s Conceptual Model
PJK’s tank terminal commercial performance model (see figure: 1-1) shows the relation between a terminal’s market environment and its commercial performance. The environment is divided into market fundamentals (which have a slow rate of change) and market dynamics (which have a fast rate of change).
In our model the fundamentals drive dynamics. A terminal that has a good fit with market dynamics will find storage rates are being better supported. Besides market dynamics also market fundamentals influence storage rates.

Market fundamentals are:
- The shape of the forward curve;
- The competitive structure; and
- Logistical factors such as supply, demand, imbalances and trade flows.
Market dynamics are:
- Inventory levels;
- Arbitrage and trade flows;
- Changes in product spec; and
- Variation in vessel sizes.
These variables have a direct impact on a terminal’s operations and on a terminal’s requirements. When a terminal is able to react faster to these dynamics in relation to its competition, it is more likely that it can create superior commercial performance.
