Top 5 largest offshore oil terminals in Europe

Rotterdam. Antwerp-Bruges. Hamburg. Marseille Fos. Haropa.

    Europe has more than 1,200 major and minor ports on sea and river waterways. Three of them, Antwerp (Belgium), Rotterdam (Netherlands), and Hamburg (Germany), together handle 12% of global cargo traffic.

    In Northwest Europe, Rotterdam is the absolute leader in crude oil handling and storage. Between 95 and 100 million tons of crude oil arriving in Rotterdam each year is almost entirely destined for refineries in the port itself, as well as in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany. In addition to importing and storing crude oil, the port of Rotterdam also offers opportunities as an oil distribution center.
