Sampling & Terminal Support B.V. has opened a new operational support hub in Rotterdam, strategically positioned to serve Europe’s busiest liquid bulk market. The facility will provide faster mobilization of sampling teams, equipment maintenance, and real-time technical support for terminal clients.
“Rotterdam is the heartbeat of European energy logistics,” said Richano Van Peer, Commercial manager. “This hub brings us closer to our clients and enhances our responsiveness in a highly competitive and time-sensitive industry.”
Why It Matters
With global supply chains facing increasing volatility, proximity to client assets is a critical operational advantage. The Rotterdam hub allows STSBV to reduce deployment lead times by up to 40%, ensuring clients meet critical loading and discharge schedules without delay.
Industry Insight
Rotterdam’s strategic role as a gateway to Europe means terminal operators face constant pressure to minimise berth times. Having an on-call technical partner for sampling and quality assurance directly impacts operational throughput and profitability.
