Storage & Terminal Access
Tank capacity and terminal coordination, arranged from Almere, the Netherlands.
Service overview
Timing is often the difference between a good cargo and a great one. CATOIL BV coordinates tank storage at established terminals so cargoes can be held, blended, split or consolidated before onward delivery. We do not own tanks; we coordinate capacity with terminal operators, documented under the commercial terms agreed for each lot.
Capabilities
- Tank capacity coordination — from part-lots to full cargo sizes, for defined periods.
- Terminal services — heating, blending and product-transfer arrangements coordinated with operators.
- Load-out scheduling — terminal nomination aligned with vessel windows.
- Parcel handling — splitting, consolidating and storing partial parcels between movements.
- Documentation — storage agreements, throughput terms and tank receipts handled with the operator.
Logistics & commercial considerations
- Duration and costing — storage economics depend on duration, throughput pattern and product type; terms are quoted per requirement.
- Product compatibility — tank lining, heating and segregation requirements checked before nomination.
- Costs — throughput, tankage and handling charges are separate commercial items and are made explicit in the structure.
- Bonded vs duty-paid — discussed per line, depending on jurisdiction and onward destination.
