GTIS is one of the largest independent crude and refined product storage terminals serving the US Gulf Coast, Latin American and Caribbean markets. Since Prostar acquired the asset in July 2019 from NuStar Energy LP, its focus has been on ensuring the continuation of high-quality service to customers, which include some of the world’s largest oil producers and traders. Prostar’s focus is now on executing its capital investment plan for the terminal, driven by demand from new customers to capitalise on emerging regional and global trends in the oil market. The plan involves the investment of up to US$100 million over the next two years on tank upgrades, jetty and marine infrastructure improvements allowing GTIS to continue to operate at the highest safety standards and provide superior service to its customers. The upgrades will further GTIS’s role as a major provider of make- and break-bulk services to customers looking to move crude oil by VLCC in and out of the US Gulf Coast as well as to end markets in the Asia-Pacific. The improvements will also allow GTIS to continue to provide bunkering services to cruise and cargo customers throughout the Caribbean. “Now that our senior leadership team is established, we are very pleased to commence our capital investment plan for GTI Statia,” said Steve Bickerton, Senior Managing Director of Prostar Capital. “These improvements are a critical component of our investment rationale and will allow us to modernise the terminal while continuing to provide outstanding customer service and deliver attractive returns for our investors.” “We’re proud to be supporting the local Statia team with the investment of new capital into a business that is critical to the local and regional economy,” added Bickerton. “Our plan allows the facility to focus on being a leading terminal operator and will leverage our strategic vision to enhance the service, quality and value of the business” said John Roller, President and CEO of GTI Statia. “We are committed to the long-term success of the facility and are excited to be embarking on this next phase of development in partnership with Prostar.” |
