Peninsula Expands Bio-Fuel Storage and Blending Facility at Rotterdam Chane Terminal
International maritime fuel supplier Peninsula has expanded its infrastructure at the Port of Rotterdam by commissioning a new bio-fuel storage and blending facility at Chane Terminal. According to the company's statement, the project represents a strategic investment toward low-carbon fuel solutions, which are experiencing growing demand in the global maritime sector.
Phase 1: 30,000 m³ capacity, nine new tanks
The first phase of the project has become fully operational and includes nine bio-fuel tanks with a total volume of 30,000 cubic meters. These tanks enable safe storage and blending of ISCC-certified sustainable bio-fuels.
The new installation includes:
3 wharves,
7 barge berths (for barges up to 135 meters),
A separate marine vessel wharf
This infrastructure also enables inter-terminal transfers with major oil companies, accelerating logistics.
Phase 2: Expansion to 110,000 m³ capacity in 2026
The second phase is planned to come online in January 2026. This phase will add eight new tanks and bring total storage capacity to 110,000 m³. This scale will position Peninsula as one of Europe's largest low-carbon fuel hubs.
Infrastructure capable of blending all types of bio-fuels
The facility has been designed to support all bio-fuel blends used in maritime operations.
Blending capabilities include:
B5, B10, B20, B30,
Mid-level blends,
Fully bio-fuel B100
.
This capability gives Peninsula the advantage of controlling product quality and blending ratios in-house. This represents a critical capability for bunker suppliers seeking to offer customers customized low-carbon solutions.
ISCC-certified facility serving the green bunker market
The new facility at Chane Terminal:
Is ISCC (International Sustainability & Carbon Certification) certified,
Is NEA registered,
Complies with EU renewable fuel standards.

using its own assets.
This expansion in Rotterdam is significant for Peninsula as it:
responds to rising demand for low-carbon marine fuels,
strengthens its competitive position in the European bunker market,
prepares the company for emission regulations under IMO and EU ETS
.
According to Peninsula's statement, the facility will offer maritime customers greater fuel choice flexibility while making the company's portfolio more sustainable as the energy transition progresses.
Key Points:
Peninsula opened a 30,000 m³ bio-fuel facility at Rotterdam Chane Terminal.
