Global Network
Four Oil Storage Hubs on the World’s Energy Corridors
Most of the world’s traded oil passes through a handful of straits, ports and trading centres. Our oil storage terminal network sits at four of them: Singapore, Rotterdam, Houston and Fujairah. Each serves its own region. Together, they connect Asia Pacific, Europe, North America and the Middle East.
Why Location Matters
In Storage, Location Is the Product
A tonne of diesel is worth more in the right place at the right time. Storage at a strategic hub lets its owner:
Choose the moment.
Product can be held when markets are oversupplied and released when demand returns.
Blend for the destination.
Hubs have the infrastructure, the blending components and the testing capacity to meet regional specifications.
Absorb disruption.
When a refinery shuts or a shipping route is disrupted, stored product close to demand keeps supply chains running.
We chose our four hubs for these reasons. Each sits on a corridor that carries a significant share of global energy trade, and each has the depth of market, infrastructure and regulation that storage customers need.

Hub Introductions
Four Hubs, Four Distinct Roles
Asia Pacific Gateway
Singapore
AOS Jurong Energy Terminal · 820,000 m³ · 16 tanks
Singapore sits where the Strait of Malacca meets the South China Sea, on the route between the Middle East, India and East Asia. It is Asia’s main oil trading centre and one of the world’s largest bunkering ports. Our Jurong terminal serves regional distribution, cargo building for Asian markets and the marine fuels trade, with heated fuel oil storage and four berths from bunker barge to LR2 size.

European Gateway
Rotterdam
AOS Rotterdam Botlek Terminal · 760,000 m³ · 18 tanks
Rotterdam is Europe’s largest port and the heart of the Amsterdam–Rotterdam–Antwerp (ARA) trading region. Our Botlek terminal focuses on clean products and renewable fuel components. Six barge berths serve inland distribution along the Rhine and Maas, and a pipeline connects the terminal to the port’s industrial corridor.
Explore Rotterdam
North American Gateway
Houston
AOS Houston Ship Channel Terminal · 640,000 m³ · 14 tanks
The Houston Ship Channel runs through one of the world’s largest concentrations of refining and petrochemical capacity. Our terminal handles crude oil, petrochemical feedstocks and refined products. It is connected by ship, barge, pipeline, truck and rail, and serves both US domestic distribution and export markets.

Expansion Pipeline
Room to Grow
Each hub has potential for further expansion. If all current expansion projects proceed, network capacity would reach about 3.8 million m³.
Customers interested in dedicated capacity in a future expansion are welcome to contact us at an early stage. Early commitments can shape tank design and configuration.
