The location is not accidental; it’s based on the logistics and specifics of the company’s activities. It will ensure the need of the regions for oil products and reduce transportation costs. By reducing the distance of fuel delivery, NIBULON will free vehicles that can provide other services.
At present, a filling station is actively being constructed at “Kremenchuts’ka” branch. The State Architectural and Construction Inspectorate issued a construction permit at the end of March. The facility will be equipped with three tanks of 75 m3 (total volume of simultaneous storage will comprise 225 m3); a place to discharge rail tank cars (the opportunity to unload two rail tank cars at once); a fuel dispenser for fueling road transport and a point for fueling tugs; a place to pour fuel into tank trucks.
Spetsmontazh Engineering Ltd. (Kremenchuk), a long-time partner of NIBULON, is a general contractor performing works at the branch. The builders have completed constructing foundations, assembly of metalware of railway unloading rack, a place to pour fuel into road tank trucks, as well as assembly of tanks, control room, and technological pipeline. They finish installing equipment of a tank farm, fuel dispenser, storm drain, as well as laying rails. It is planned to start pre-commissioning from May 21.
It should be noted that the company has purchased modern equipment from domestic companies and leading companies of the USA, Sweden, Poland, etc. for its filling station in the territory of “Kremenchuts’ka” branch. The equipment has already been delivered.
Reducing the cost of fuel transportation will increase the competitive advantages of NIBULON in the region and will reduce the prime cost of delivery and cultivation of products.
