OW Bunker forms Colombia venture with Petrocosta

OW Bunker forms Colombia venture with Petrocosta
OW Bunker has formed a partnership with Petrocosta to expand its capabilities in Colombia.

Under the venture Petrocosta will be responsible for sourcing, blending and storage as well as the transportation of marine fuel products, while OW Bunker will undertake the sales and marketing, as well as providing risk management. Petrocotsa has a fleet for five bunker vessels.

“As Latin America’s trade growth is poised to rise, entering into a strategic partnership with Petrocosta, is a strategic, timely move that will allow us to further strengthen and expand our services for customers in Colombia,” Pedro Gómez, regional manager for OW Bunker Latin America said. “Based on our existing relationship, we are mutually confident that our ambitions and operational synergies are closely aligned.

OW Bunker opened up in Cartagena, Colombia in January this year.
