Name and Location
Western Cape independent fuel storage and distribution project, Western Cape, South Africa.

Client

Project Description
The new terminal will offer safe, state-of-the-art and flexible storage.

The terminal will have a capacity of 118 670 m3 of product, with the product portfolio including diesel, petrol, fatty
acid ethyl esters and ethanol for blending, and Clean Fuels 2.

A 12 m jetty will also be built to provide direct access for vessels, with drafts of up to 12 m.

The terminal will also be directly connected by pipeline to the inland Chevref refinery, and loading will be optimised using five bottom-loading road truck bays.

Companies will rent space from Burgan to store their fuel products.

Value
An estimated R650-million will be invested in the project during the first two years of development.

Duration
The project officially broke ground in December 2015. The terminal is expected to be completed within 18 months.

Burgan has signed ten-year contracts with oil companies, which jointly aim for throughput of up to 805 000 m3/y.

Gulfstream Energy has signed a three-year throughput agreement to store 120-million litres a year with Burgan Cape Terminals, while Shell will also be an anchor tenant.
