Title: OIL TERMINAL 2009
Type: Port
Country: Russia
Location: Saint-Petersburg
Date: 2009-11-26
Details:

IV International Congress for transportation, storage and transhipment of liquefied gases, crude oil and products - OIL TERMINAL 2009  will take place on November 26-27, 2009 in Saint-Petersburg.

Oil cargo transshipment volumes over 5 months of the current year have grown much faster against 2008. As of today, there are over 32 new oil, liquefied gas and petroleum products terminals being built in Russia, and over 34 existing terminals are being expanded. These projects will make a colossal impact on the changing routes of oil and gas producers and trading companies, and raise a number of issues for terminals inside Russia as well as in neighbouring states, where competition is becoming stronger.

This event will cover new development and expansion projects at Russian terminals, and pipeline and rail routes, as well as providing a broad overview of European best practice in the development of oil hubs (Hamburg, Antwerp, Amsterdam, Rotterdam), and in designing new export routes and attracting investments in port capacity improvement. The congress will also help find solutions to the logistical issues of crude oil, liquefied gas and oil products storage and transshipment.

The Programme 2009 includes:

  1. International Congress
  2. Tank Farms and Terminals exhibition
  3. Award ceremony and Gala dinner
  4. Oil terminal visit
