Monjasa Begins New UK Bunkering Service from Former Aegean Terminal
Monjasa A/S will begin offering bunkering services at UK's Portland Port after taking over a terminal formerly belonging to Aegean Marine Petroleum, the company announced in a statement.
The company said that the facility is strategically located at the mouth of the western entrance of the European Emission Control Area (ECA), and expects it to help increase its overall physical supply in Northern Europe by 300,000 tonnes per year.
Monjasa says it will be able to offer bunker deliveries of all grades, along with crew-change and slops disposal services at all European terminal facilities.
"It's part of the Monjasa Group strategy to strengthen our physical capabilities across Northern Europe. With this move into the English Channel, we are heightening security of supply throughout the area," said Ricky Kenbjerg, Managing Director for Monjasa Europe.
"When placing an order with Monjasa, our clients will thereby enjoy full flexibility in taking bunkers anywhere between the English Channel and the Baltic Sea."
Ship & Bunker also reported last week that the company had appointed Carsten Vanting as its new Head of Credit.
