Peterson Energy Logistics wins integrated logistics contract from Apache North Sea
(WO) – Peterson Energy Logistics has been awarded an integrated logistics contract from Apache North Sea Limited.
The international logistics company will deliver quayside, receipt and dispatch, and fuel services from its bases in Aberdeen and Edzell.
Chris Coull, Managing Director for Scotland at Peterson Energy Logistics, said, “Our suite of technology and commitment to carbon reduction initiatives complements our track record in the UKCS.
Peterson will recruit approximately 50 staff to support the contract, offering job opportunities in Aberdeen and Edzell which in turn will help support the local economy.
“A high percentage of our vendors are located within a short distance of Aberdeen Port so managing our logistics from the city will have a positive impact on reducing transportation and carbon emissions,” said Jillian Owen, Apache North Sea U.K. Country Manager.
“Furthermore, there will be more opportunities on offer to vessel share with other Peterson customers. Technology focused logistics will lead to improved reporting and data analysis with digitalization supporting our team with real-time reporting.”
The award boosts Peterson’s quayside activity by an additional 80,000 tonnes, forming 20% of the company’s overall activity for the year.
The contract commenced this month following a 12-week transition period.
