The Port of Gävle and Inter Terminals (IT) have signed a new 25-year agreement, covering the latter's operations in the Swedish seaport.
IT, a provider of storage and logistics solutions for liquid energy products, has been present in the Port of Gävle since 1993 - currently handling jet fuel and sustainable aviation fuel.
IT's Gävle Terminal - featuring two jetties for 245-metre-long, 12.2-m-draft tankers - offers 157,000 m3 of storage (spread across 12 tanks in the 2,700-35,000 m3 range). The stored cargo is dispatched via a fully automated rail-loading facility onto a daily shuttle train to Arlanda Airport.
"By entering into a 25-year agreement, we strengthen the long-term stability and predictability that provide a solid foundation for continued development at the port. It enables more efficient planning and reduces friction in our cooperation - while ensuring clarity regarding security, requirements, and compliance. Inter Terminals is an important partner at the port, and we look forward to continuing to develop together," commented Fredrik Svanbom, CEO, Port of Gävle.
His counterpart at Inter Terminals Sweden, Johan Zettergren, also underscored, "We are very positive about our presence in Gävle. This is a large, modern port with a strategic location in the Baltic Sea - at the heart of an industry-intensive region and close to major airports and population centres. Given today's geopolitical realities, we believe Gävle's logistics position will become even more important. We are pleased to continue developing our long-term collaboration with the Port of Gävle."
