Noord Natie Odfjell Antwerp Terminal

Strategically located in the Port of Antwerp, Noord Natie Odfjell Antwerp Terminal (NNOAT) is a leader in the European chemical storage market. The terminal offers a unique combination of storage and related ‘value added’ services for several types of liquids. 

  • Total storage capacity: 502,206 cbm
  • 256 tanks ranging from 400 cbm to 8,300 cbm, divided over 20 interconnected tank pits
  • Stainless steel storage capacity: 195,332 cbm
  • 9 berths for seagoing vessels
  • 3 berths for barges
  • 2,500-meter mooring capacity

NNOAT has easy access to sea, inland waterways, roads and railways. The terminal provides storage and related activities for chemicals, liquids for human or animal consumption, mineral oils, base oil, oleochemicals and biofuels. 

NNOAT has a wide variety of tanks with multiple sizes ranging from 400 cbm to 8,200 cbm of different materials like mild steel, coated or stainless steel tanks, and a variety of types of tank equipment like insulation, steam heating, electrical heating, nitrogen installation and vapor return systems.

The terminal has food-grade approvals for the storage of food, feed-grade chemicals and kosher storage. No matter how specific the storage requirements of the liquids are, a suitable tank will be at hand. 

Under its ongoing expansion program, NNOAT has added capacity in phases while maintaining high utilization. In 2025, two expansion projects were completed as part of the terminal’s long-term development roadmap: Tankpit R, adding 27,500 cbm across ten tanks, and Tankpit Q, adding 12,000 cbm of stainless-steel capacity across two tanks. Both projects were delivered safely, on time and on budget, and are fully automated, supporting more efficient operations and reduced manual handling.

Groundwork also commenced late in 2025 for the next expansion phase, Tankpit S, comprising 18 duplex steel tanks with a total capacity of approximately 36,000 cbm. The duplex design provides operational flexibility and allows for future adaptation to a broader range of products.

Another tank pit, comprising ten tanks and totaling 27,500 cbm, is currently under construction. Once completed, the tank pit will add 6% to the local capacity, bringing the terminal’s storage capacity close to 490,000 cbm.

The combination of chemical transportation at sea and flexible storage ashore offers effective and flexible synergies for Odfjell’s customers.  

Odfjell has a 25% stake in Noord Natie Odfjell Antwerp Terminal.
