CLH has opened the new expansion of storage
facility recently located at Albuixech. Thus, CLH has replaced its old storage
installation in Valencia, which was in operation since 1991 and definitely
dismantled in 2006.
Before starting the expansion of these works, which
were contracted by CLH, ALBUIXECH’s facility had 16 tanks using for oil
products storage, having as a total storage capacity of 121.000m3.
MONTREL Industrial Group, having over 46 years
of experience working on Oil&Gas sector, has carried out full electrical
and instrumentation works successfully related to mentioned project to expand
its storage capacity.
This one, being one of the most modern in CLH,
is connected to BP refinery in CASTELLON by the oil pipeline to one another.
Additionally, it allows us to store an important part of national Strategic
Petroleum Reserves (SPR) and supplying different oil products, such as
(gasoline, diesel, biodiesel and kerosene) to several petroleum companies which
operate in ‘Comunidad Valenciana’.
For this purpose, truck loading facility has
been implemented to be operating 24/7 service automatically. Apart from nonstop
service, it is essential to mention that mentioned installation is able to fill
more than 250 tank’s truck every day (100.000 a year approximately).
MONTREL has carried out all the work on-site
completely, performing all adaptations, expansion (including hot-works),
start-ups and commissioning of 10 loading stations in order to be incorporated
into the system of the plant.
Presently, MONTREL Industrial Group is a Spanish
market-leading of Process Control and Management Systems related to integrated
terminal stations for oil products distribution, by implementing modern
automatic systems, which only takes around 15 minutes, setting a new record
time of this sort of systems around the world, to fill each tank whose capacity
is nearly 30.000 litres. As a result, it
represents a significant improvement in optimization terms and increasing
operational safety level.The investment made by CLH on ALBUIXECH facility
is part of the proposed plan to their own infrastructure carried out in
‘Comunidad Valenciana’ in order to expand its storage capacity and oil products
distribution in mentioned region on the east of Spain, in which MONTREL
contributes towards wealth of industrial knowledge and expertise.
