Impala Terminals Group will hold an on-site ceremony on Tuesday 4 April 2023 to mark the opening of its first Australian energy import, storage and distribution terminal at Kwinana Bay near Perth.
Strategically located next to the Kwinana Bulk Jetty (KBJ), Impala Terminals Kwinana will bring fuel distributors alternatives to serve Perth and the surrounding region, creating a more resilient energy market and greater supply security to the people of Western Australia.
With a growing demand for energy in the B2B market, the terminal will expand the region’s import, storage and distribution capacity with this new state of the art facility.
The inauguration ceremony will commence at 10:30am, followed by an optional guided tour of the terminal.
The new terminal, which has been in operation since last October, has a storage capacity of 225 million litres/1.4 million barrels, with 11 bulk tanks; four day tanks; and a butane tank.
The facility includes a diesel express lane which significantly reduces loading time for delivery vehicles, and is equipped with the latest equipment and automation systems.
The terminal is currently handling diesel and gasoline, as well as butane for blending, and is supported by a strategic anchor customer.
The terminal cost more than $150 million to construct, signifying the Group’s long-term commitment to Western Australia.
The investment has created 8 full-time jobs and additional work for around 50 local contractors.
More than 250 truck drivers have already received induction training aligned to Impala Terminals’ stringent global safety standards.
If you would like to attend the opening ceremony and guided tour, please RSVP to rsvp@impalaterminals.com by 30 April.
