Gunvor Group is moving ahead with plans for its new refinery in Belgium, having successfully launched a $500 million revolving credit facility to finance the purchase of crude oil and blending products, storage and processing, and carrying of receivables, PRNewswire reported Wednesday.
"One of the pillars of Gunvor's growth strategy is the investment in energy infrastructure complementary to our trading function," said Gunvor Group CEO Torbjorn Tornqvist.
The former Petroplus refinery in Antwerp has a throughput capacity of 105,000 barrels per day and a storage capacity of 1.2 million cubic meters. Gunvor also has a pending purchase of a refinery in Ingolstadt.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
