One terminal, three product flows
Liquid bitumen
Bitumen is used in the production of asphalt mixtures and bituminous materials for waterproofing. Production in Europe has high costs (high energy and gas consumption), so the product is imported in significant quantities.
- Domestic road bitumen consumption (2023): approx. 900,000 t/year, increasing until 2033
- Only domestic production: ~100,000 t/year — the rest is imported
- Import 2022: approx. 235 million USD, from Hungary, Greece, Turkey
Biodiesel
The demand for biodiesel is linked to the consumption of Euro 5 diesel and European targets for reducing fossil fuels. Biodiesel is exempt from excise duties, which makes it more attractive in terms of price.
- Domestic Euro 5 diesel consumption (2023): ~5.2 million tons
- Mandatory biodiesel component in Euro 5: 7%, increasing
- Romania imports ~60% of its needs — predominantly from non-EU countries
Liquid fertilizers
The European strategy aims to increase the use of liquid fertilizers at the expense of solid ones, due to faster absorption and reduced soil losses.
- Agricultural area in Romania: ~13.5 million ha (~8.2 million ha arable)
- Estimated consumption: 0.5–0.7 t/ha/year on irrigated land (direct injectables)
- Import from intra-community and extra-community countries
