Inter Terminals Sweden (ITS) will invest in increased truck loading capacity for one of our most long-standing customers in Gothenburg, Shell. The equipment is being developed to enable truck loading of GTL (Gas-to-Liquid). GTL contains almost no sulfur, nitrogen, or aromatic compounds. When used as a fuel, GTL offers substantial reductions in regulated pollutants compared to traditional diesel, which directly improves local air quality and outstanding cold-weather performance. The truck loading rack will be used to deliver neat EN15940 spec GTL fuel and G70 fluid for various chemical applications.
Beyond enabling GTL distribution, this investment increases the modal diversity and operational flexibility at the Gothenburg terminal. By expanding from traditional modes of transport to include efficient truck loading of new fuel types, ITS strengthens its ability to adapt to varying customer needs, market developments, and changing logistical patterns. This enhanced flexibility supports smoother supply-chain management for customers, reduces dependency on single transport modes, and improves overall resilience. It also creates greater optionality for future product flows, including the integration and expansion of renewable and low-carbon fuels.
Johan Zettergren, managing director, Inter Terminals Sweden, says: ‘ITS is seeing increased demand for additional distribution outlets at its terminals—not least to support the development and distribution of more biofuels going forward. This project represents an important step in that direction and reinforces ITS’s commitment to enabling sustainable and efficient energy logistics for the future.’
