This activity will complement the original South to North pumping direction, making the system unique in its bidirectional feature. The ability to pump crude oil in both directions has also enabled the company to double the operational storage capacity.
One of the reasons that triggered this project was the assumption that part of the crude oil produced in Russia, the Central Asian Republics or in the Caucasus and loaded at Black Sea ports can be marketed at competitive prices for distribution in Southern Asia and the Far East.
The long route around Africa and the limitations of the Suez Canal (related to the size of tankers) gives our project a definite competitive advantage.
EAPC's range of facilities offers the option of collecting several cargoes of 500,000 bbls or 1,000,000 bbls at our storage terminals and then redelivering bigger cargoes in Eilat.
EAPC's flexible system can provide other transportation and handling alternatives. Combined with storage for various periods, it can offer a vast variety of services.
