Stena Oil’s new terminal with a capacity of 75,000 cubic meters in Frederikshavn, Denmark was inaugurated on 14 May.
Stena Oil, a global player in the marine fuels industry, said the terminal is a flexible terminal prepared for the upcoming green transition in the marine fuel market.
“We are very pleased to be up and running with operations in Frederikshavn. Our official opening attracted a large number of guests, mostly international customers, which we take as proof that this new setup is right,” stated Jonas Persson, managing director of Stena Oil.
The new terminal complements the operations in Gothenburg, Sweden and provides an efficient infrastructure. The terminal is designed to handle various types of fuels, and over the year, a newly built bunker vessel will be put into operation, which will also be able to handle several types of fuels including biofuels and methanol.
One of the customers that will be served from Frederikshavn is Stena Line with its routes on the Kattegat.
“This is an advanced and flexilble terminal with large capacity. Frederikshavn’s geographical location brings us closer to our customers and allows us to offer even more efficient delivery with environmental benefits and solutions for future fuels,” noted Jonas Persson.
Birgit S. Hansen, mayor of Frederikshavn Municipality, commented, ”We are very pleased with our collaboration with Stena Oil. The strategic location of Frederikshavn makes the port a maritime hub for both regional and international trade passing through the Kattegat. It has now revealed yet another opportunity: a state-of-the-art bunker terminal.”
