Trading
Sector
Guangzhou Twinace majors in the importing,
wholesale and retailing of fuel oil business while gradually
establishing a complete petrochemical operational network
in the domestic petrochemical market.
Guangzhou
Twinace has built up its good credibility with the relevant
government authorities and local/foreign customers resulting
in their long-term co-operation. Many local banks have identified
Guangzhou Twinace with the credit rating of ‘Grade A Corporation’
and ‘Golden Customer’ while the Guangzhou Customs Bureau grades
the company as a ‘Grade A Import/Export Corporation’. The
Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government of
Guangzhou City have repeatedly regarded the company as an
advanced private corporation. With strong credit support from
local banks and foreign counterparties, Twinace is able to
strengthen the base of its fuel oil business and expand its
oil products business.
Storage Facilities
Guangzhou Twinace has fully utilized
the storage capacity of several oil storage tanks owned by
its strategic partners. Their favorable geographical locations
and well-established port and storage facilities have facilitated
the company’s fuel oil marketing channel; enhanced its sales
capability in the domestic product oil market, as well as
successfully developed the bonded fuel oil business and import
co-operation business ventures.
In
view of the swift business development and pressing demands,
the company has started its long-term lease of product oil
storage tanks in the region of tens of thousands of cubic
meters at Panyu, Dongguan, etc, since 1998. These tanks are
flexible in their usage for storage and transfer transportation
operations according to business needs.
In order to evolve into a comprehensive
petrochemical corporation nationwide, Guangzhou Twinace began
to actively search for appropriate partners and large-scale
petrochemical wharfs and oil storage tanks at geographically
favourable locations to expand its business scope in Eastern
China since 2002. In 2003, the company initiated its first
move in the northern market by renting a total of 210,000
cu.m. petrochemical storage tanks in Huangdao in view of the
huge potential in Qingdao market. The company rented another
two petrochemical wharfs with capacities of 50,000 tons and
230,000 tons respectively from Nantong Power Shell Logistics
Limited for logistics/sales purpose. The company is actively
planning with the Dongguan partner for the joint project at
Li Sha Island and this will enhance its logistics network
in Guangdong and trading options. The company’s business will
ensure more flexibility with more leasing of petrochemical
storages facilities at all locations.
