Stena Oil’s new terminal in Frederikshavn officially opened
On Tuesday, May 14th, Stena Oil’s new terminal in Frederikshavn was inaugurated. The terminal, which has a capacity of 75,000 cubic meters, is a flexible terminal prepared for the green transition in the marine fuel market going forward.
“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,” says Jonas Persson, MD Stena Oil.
The new terminal complements the operations in Gothenburg 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,” says Jonas Persson.
This collaboration between Frederikshavn and Stena Oil highlights the city’s importance as a key player in the maritime industry, offering efficient fuel services and contributing to sustainable transport in the region. The mayor of Frederikshavn, Birgit S. Hansen, was a part of the inauguration and she is proud to see the terminal up and running.
”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,” says Birgit S. Hansen, mayor of Frederikshavn Municipality.
