Bitumen

Bitumen

Bitumen is one of the heaviest products produced from crude distillation and is used primarily in road paving and industrial applications such as roofing and water proofing. GPC supplies most grades of bitumen according to client requirements and can handle parcel sizes from 20 metric tons trucks to 34,000 metric tons cargoes.

Due to the high viscosity of bitumen it needs to be transported at high temperatures, typically between 130-180C. GPC works with various fleet operators specialised in bitumen vessels capable of delivering volumes ranging from 7,000 metric tons to 34,000 metric tons, some of which have been built to our exact specifications, others on long-term charter.

GPC supplies bitumen to an international client base, connecting high quality production facilities to relevant import markets around the globe.
