Danube Logistics Ltd, earlier known as Azertrans Ltd, has finished the basic construction works at the Giurgiulesti oil terminal [in the Republic of Moldova] and is to start arranging its territory.

According to the [Moldovan] Economics and Trade Ministry's public relations service, a competent commission has checked up the state of things at the Giurgiulesti terminal and positively appreciated the works' quality and plenitude. Thus, it is planned to officially celebrate the completion of the terminal's construction by end-October 2006.

The terminal will include a wharf for oil tanks, eight containers to stock the oil products, which overall potential is 52,000 tons, a system for pumping oil products from ships into and from the containers, and a platform to load the fuel-transporting vehicles.

The oil terminal has a hi-tech system to collect and filter residual waters, and waters containing oil, a transformation power plant; and an automatic fire preventing system. The compound also includes administrative buildings, laboratories and canteens.

Except for the investments in construction works, significant sums were invested in environmental protection works so as to meet the European standards.

The Danube Logistics Limited company's direct investments in the Giurgiulesti oil terminal's construction amounted to about 23 million dollars. // Moldpres
