KINGSBURY OIL TERMINAL

Kingsbury Oil Terminal is an oil storage depot located to the northeast of the village of Kingsbury, Warwickshire, England. It was opened in the late 1960s and serves the Midlands region. It is the largest inland oil storage depot in the United Kingdom. The main operators at the site are Essar, Warwickshire Oil Storage Limited and Valero Energy Corporation. The site also has facilities from Shell and pipeline operations from the British Pipeline Agency. In August 2006 the terminal was targeted by terrorists as part of a terror plot involving several sites across the country.

An oil terminal (also called a tank farm, tankfarm, oil installation or oil depot) is an industrial facility for the storage of oil, petroleum and petrochemical products, and from which these products are transported to end users or other storage facilities. An oil terminal typically has a variety of above or below ground tankage; facilities for inter-tank transfer; pumping facilities; loading gantries for filling road tankers or barges; ship loading/unloading equipment at marine terminals; and pipeline connections.

We specialize in loading, unloading, storing, and transshipment of crude oil, natural gas, and various petroleum products, including motor gasoline, aviation fuel, and gas oil. In addition to the United Kingdom, we also offer transshipment, storage, and bunkering services to and from the European Union, Rotterdam terminal, Russia, Jurong terminal, Houston terminal (TX), the Caribbean, and Asia.
