The Port of Amsterdam is about to see an upgrade in its rail system. Following an agreement between Global Petro Storage Group (GPS) and VARO Energy, the upgrade will be part of a broader improvement plan that will be implemented at the port. Alongside with the rail system, the two partners are also aiming to expand the ethanol storage tanks of the facilities.
With this move, GPS Group and VARO Energy are sealing a collaboration of years. Last year GPS Group expanded its Class 1 storage capacity from 148,500 square metres to 282,500 square metres. As for the new rail system and ethanol storage tanks, they will get connected directly with seventeen Class 1 tanks that already exist in the port. As a result, there is a continuity of developments observed, which aims to provide more flexibility in the supply chains.
