Transporting

Using ships, gas carriers, trains, pipelines and trucks, we transport refined products to and from our import terminals and to our customers
Three BP oil tankers British Kestrel, British Fidelity and British Liberty docked in the waters of Cockburn Sound, at BP's Kwinana Refinery in Perth, Australia.

After arriving at Bulwer and Kwinana fuel import terminals, refined products are transported across Australia to other terminals by pipeline, ship or rail car. Terminals contain bulk storage tanks that hold products such as petrol, diesel, and marine and aviation fuel. From terminals, products are transferred to trucks for transportation to depots, business customers and service stations. At the busiest terminals trucking operations occur six or seven days a week.

 

LNG transportation

We operate a fleet of specialist gas carriers, including the NW Shearwater, to transport liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the North West Shelf gas field to markets in Japan.
