Vopak expands in the Port of Santos, Brazil

Today Royal Vopak announces that it will expand its wholly-owned terminal in Alemoa, which is located in Brazil's Port of Santos, Latin America's largest port.

The expansion will add 16 new tanks with a capacity of 61,000 cbm to Vopak's Alemoa Terminal. The total capacity of the terminal after the expansion will be 235,000 cbm. In addition, five additional truck loading bays will be constructed that are designed to handle up to 130 additional trucks per day.
