Dan-Bunkering Expands Physical Supply Presence
Dan-Bunkering today announced it has expanded its physical supply presence in Colombia, having entered into a new partnership with Petrocosta for physical supplies in Cartagena.
Under the deal, Dan-Bunkering will handle all sales and will provide risk management, while Petrocosta will handle the sourcing, blending, supply, and storage of the products.
As Ship & Bunker reported at the end of 2015, the bunker trader already has a presence in the country through a deal with Australian Bunkers in Buenaventura.
Dan-Bunkering said the Petrocosta partnership is "complementary" to that with Australian Bunkers and would "develop and strengthen Dan-Bunkering’s physical presence in Latin America."
"I am very pleased to announce this increase of our physical presence in Latin America as we feel we have a lot to offer our clients in this particular region," said Pedro Gomez, General Manager of Dan-Bunkering (Chile) SpA.
"Our Latin American offices were established less than two years ago and I am very proud that we are capable of offering physical supply in no less than three South American areas by now."
Dan-Bunkering also has a full physical supply operation in Montevideo, Uruguay.
