Health, Safety & Environment

Safety is Non-Negotiable.

As a newly established business, Blue Gate Tank Farm is direct about its HSE approach: we work within applicable regulation and within the specific safety procedures of any terminal, port or marine facility involved in a given engagement, and we expect the same discipline from every partner we work with.

Our Approach

Four Principles. No Exceptions.

PEOPLE

Safety comes first in every engagement.

We expect the same standard of care from every partner and facility we work with as we hold ourselves to.

DOCUMENTATION

Clear records, every time.

Documentation accuracy and traceability are treated as a baseline requirement, not an afterthought, across every coordination we support.

ENVIRONMENT

Preference for compliant, responsible operators.

Where we coordinate storage or logistics access, we prioritise facilities and partners that maintain sound environmental and safety practices.

COMPLIANCE

Working within applicable regulation.

We operate within Dutch and EU regulatory requirements, and within the specific procedures of whichever terminal, port or marine facility a given engagement involves.

Working With Partner Facilities

Their Procedures. Our Diligence.

Blue Gate Tank Farm does not operate its own terminal or storage infrastructure. Where we coordinate access to storage, terminal or marine services, physical operations are governed by the applicable host facility's own safety, environmental and permit-to-work procedures — not by a Blue Gate Tank Farm-issued standard.

Our role is to work within that framework: confirming documentation is complete, communication between parties is clear, and coordination around scheduling and access is handled responsibly for every engagement.
