Increasing the Crude Oil & Oil Products Storage Capacity
In response to the increasing demand for crude oil and oil products storage capacities, EAPC is planning to build additional storage facilities for the domestic and international markets.
The expansion of the system's capacity was triggered by the increase in the production capacities of Russia and the Central Asian Republics, fed through new pipelines to the Eastern Mediterranean Basin, along with the increase in the oil consumption and refining capabilities of developing countries in the East.
This growth amplifies the Ashkelon Port's status as a regional distribution center for crude oil and oil products.
