Phase 1: Now Live
Peninsula’s Chane Terminal features nine new tanks dedicated to biofuel blending and storage, with a total capacity of 30,000 cubic metres. The facility is ISCC certified and Nea registered, ensuring full compliance and traceability for all operations. Enhanced infrastructure includes three jetties and seven berths for barges up to 135 metres, plus a jetty for seagoing vessels, supporting efficient logistics and inter-terminal transfers (ITT) with major oil companies.
Phase 2: Expansion
The second phase in January 2026 will see an additional eight tanks come online, boosting total capacity to 110,000 cubic metres. This expansion strengthens Peninsula’s operational capabilities in the ARA region and reinforces its role as a key player in supporting Europe’s energy transition.
Peninsula’s new setup allows for the blending of any biofuel grade (HSFO/VLSFO), from B5 to B100, with full control over the blending process and product quality. The facility’s flexibility enables Peninsula to blend products to preferred ratios, enhancing both quality and customer choice.
The Chane Terminal will play a pivotal role in advancing Peninsula’s biofuel strategy, supporting decarbonisation efforts and delivering value to customers throughout Europe.
Thomas Van Hoeteghem, Regional Supply Manager North-West Europe at Peninsula, commented: “We are delighted to expand our footprint in Rotterdam, Europe’s largest port. This new facility not only strengthens our operational capabilities but also demonstrates Peninsula’s ongoing commitment to sustainable marine energy solutions. By investing in advanced infrastructure and flexible blending options, we are empowering our customers to meet their decarbonisation goals with confidence.”
