Mediterranean oil hub converting to biodiesel

An oil storage terminal in the south of France is soon to become the country's first dedicated biodiesel hub on the Mediterranean coast.

DPPLN Terminal, located between Montpellier and Barcelona, is being converted to exclusively handle biodiesel in line with European regulations which foresee continuously evolving biodiesel incorporation requirements.

The 45,000m3 facility consists of 10 tanks and two jetties capable of reception, storage and distribution of biofuels, vegetable oils and petroleum products, also offering blending and mixing services.
