Agility, Linfox tie up to offer Australian resource logistics

AGILITY and Linfox Logistics have formed an alliance to offer logistics solutions for major oil, gas and mining projects in Australia.

Agility's Australasian and north Asian CEO Mick Turnbull said: "The two companies will leverage their combined expertise to provide supply chain solutions to major projects in the oil, gas and mining sectors. We look forwards to supporting major resources projects in remote regions."

The two companies said they already provide logistics services to the Gorgon gas field development in Western Australia, with Agility as the lead logistics provider and Linfox providing specialised transport and warehousing services.

"A joint office in Gladstone in Queensland has been established to seek logistics opportunities as the region's resources industry continues to develop," a joint statement said.

Linfox president Resources, Peter Stokes, said: "This strategic alliance is an important extension of our expertise in supporting major resource projects, often in remote regions. Linfox supports key extractive industries across Western Australia, South Australia and Queensland."
