Liwathon B.O.S., located in Grand Bahama, was acquired by Liwathon in 2023. Serves as our Americas Atlantic basin hub with deep and wide sea access routes, VLCC loading & unloading capabilities, and a prime position in the heart of major Atlantic basin trading flows. Acquired by Liwathon Group from Equinor, Liwathon B.O.S. is approximately three days from all major US ports and operates as a storage, import, and export centre for dark and light petroleum products. Its strategic Atlantic basin location near the US, without being impacted by the Jones Act, makes it perfect for building bulk, breaking bulk, and blending. The terminal has a storage capacity of 1,093,832 m³ (6,880,000 bbl) across twelve tanks.
Products Handled
Liwathon B.O.S. terminal, strategically located in Grand Bahama at the gateway to the Gulf of Mexico, is a leading facility offering advanced storage, blending, and transhipment solutions for the global oil industry. The terminal provides a broad range of storage options for dark and light petroleum products, with individual tank capacities ranging from 4,000 to 120,000 m³. Its unique tank design, which eliminates the need for product heels to float the roofs, ensures complete segregation of product qualities—supporting safer, more efficient storage of multiple grades.
Complementing its storage capabilities, the terminal features a high-capacity offshore sea island jetty capable of handling discharging, loading, and ship-to-ship transhipment of crude oil and refined products—including VLCCs up to 500,000 MT. The jetty is equipped with advanced infrastructure and automation, enabling fast turnaround and minimal downtime.
Liwathon B.O.S. supports complex blending operations both in-tank and onboard vessels, as well as via in-line blenders. The terminal functions as a full Light Ends blending pool hub, including Gasoline and Naphtha blending, Diesel, Jet, and the full suite of blending components—allowing for tailored specifications to meet diverse customer and regional demands.
With one of the highest pumping capacities in the region, Liwathon B.O.S. ensures rapid vessel servicing and efficient throughput across its operations. Its strategic location outside US Jones Act constraints, yet within close proximity to major East Coast, Gulf Coast, and Latin American trade routes, positions the terminal as a vital asset for traders, refiners, and producers seeking flexible, high-performance logistics in the Atlantic basin.
