Inter terminals strengthens top team
Inter Terminals is strengthening its Leadership Team to support the continuing growth and development of its business – now ranked as one of the largest independent bulk liquid storage providers in northern Europe, and the largest in Scandinavia.
With over 26 years of experience with the company, Paul Oseland is taking on a brand new role of Chief Operating Officer, Inter Terminals. Replacing Paul as Commercial Director, Inter Terminals is Per Follin, previously responsible for managing large-scale development projects for Inter Terminals’ Swedish business and supporting acquisition activities within Europe.
Flying the flag in five countries
The decision to introduce the new position of Chief Operating Officer reflects Inter Terminals’ significant expansion since becoming part of Inter Pipeline Ltd. in 2005. During this time Inter Terminals has grown from the UK and Ireland based Simon Storage business with approximately 1 million m³ capacity to a pan-European business, with a combined capacity of approximately 4.4 million m³ across 16 multi-product terminals in five strategically located countries, namely Sweden, Denmark, Germany, the UK and Ireland.
