Fueling The World
Oil And Petroleum Products
Oil and petroleum products such as gasoline, jet fuel, diesel and fuel oil are an essential part of the global energy mix today, used for transportation and by a wide range of industries. They will continue to play an important role in supporting growing global energy demand during the transition currently underway to a low-carbon economy.
As one of the world’s largest suppliers of energy, our teams have significant expertise in moving oil and petroleum products to customers around the world – safely, reliably and efficiently.
ENERGISING THE NAMIBIAN ECONOMY
A single barrel of crude oil has many uses and end consumers
Crude oil is a raw material than can produce a wide array of products, each playing a crucial role in our everyday lives. Trafigura sources, stores and supplies many of these petroleum products, including gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, bitumen and heavy fuel oil. We also blend fuels to comply with environmental regulations and enhance their performance for end-users.
SUPPLY CHAIN SOLUTIONS
Delivering petroleum products to remote Namibian locations
Through our extensive network, we ensure that petroleum products reach remote areas in Namibia, playing an essential role in daily life and local economies. To supply communities across Namibia’s vast landscapes, our team sources petroleum products from the strategic port of Walvis Bay. From here, products are offloaded and carefully transported by road tankers across Namibia’s challenging terrain, reaching inland destinations and remote communities efficiently and reliably. We are among Namibia’s leading suppliers and distributors of diesel and other essential petroleum products, supporting growth and development in even the most isolated regions.
ALTERNATIVE FUELS
Making aviation sustainable
In recognition of the role sustainable aviation fuel has to play in the decarbonisation of the global airline industry, we are working with companies across the supply chain to understand how we can help balance supply and demand for new fuels, utilising our logistics know-how and operational expertise.
This is part of a wider push to diversify our oil and petroleum business, offering new products to meet the needs of our customers. This includes biofuels, which can be blended with fossil fuels or used as a low-carbon alternative.
