VTTI commissions new bitumen facility

“This development reinforces VTTI’s commitment to delivering energy solutions that support our regional growth, diversification, and reliability across Southeast Asia,” said Janice Kuan, Senior Vice President Commercial at VTTI. “We are ready to provide safe, reliable, and responsive bitumen services to our customers – supporting the infrastructure that connects communities and drives economic growth.”

Following the commissioning and first bitumen import, VTTI Malaysia takes another step forward in delivering trusted energy logistics solutions to meet the region’s growing infrastructure and industrial needs.

This expansion brings VTTI Malaysia’s total commercial storage capacity to 1.45 million m³, broadening the product portfolio to include gasoline, jet fuel, gasoil, fuel oil, crude oil, biofuels, and now bitumen. Bitumen, or asphalt, is a vital material for modern infrastructure – used in roads, airport runways, and waterproofing. As urbanisation accelerates, demand for secure and efficient bitumen supply and storage continues to grow.

Looking ahead, VTTI remains committed to advancing its bitumen operations to meet the evolving needs of communities and economies.
