At Gibraltar San Roque Refinery (RGSR), logistics is not an afterthought — it’s a core pillar of our energy distribution strategy. Situated at the nexus of Europe’s most vital maritime and land-based corridors, our logistics division ensures refined products reach customers quickly, safely, and cost-efficiently. From deep-water port exports to inland terminal delivery, our logistics infrastructure transforms our production capacity into global access.

Strategic Location, Global Reach

Located at San Roque Port in Southern Spain, RGSR is uniquely positioned to serve as a launchpad for energy flow to Western Europe, North Africa, and Latin America. Our refinery’s proximity to deep-water berths allows us to accommodate some of the largest tankers in operation, ensuring high-volume exports to international markets.

The strategic logistics location is enhanced by:

• Direct sea access to the Strait of Gibraltar for intercontinental shipping.
• Integrated pipeline networks connected to the CLH system for inland and regional distribution.
• On-site road and rail access to deliver refined products across the Iberian Peninsula and beyond.

Multimodal Transport Integration

We believe in a multimodal logistics model — one that seamlessly integrates maritime, pipeline, road, and rail transport to ensure flexible and scalable movement of products. Whether it’s bulk shipping to overseas terminals or localized fuel supply to inland distributors, our logistics capabilities adapt to meet client and market demand.

Key Components:

• Maritime Export Terminals: 22-meter draft access allows us to load large crude and product tankers for overseas delivery.
• Road Tanker Loading Bays: Designed for fast and safe dispatch to local clients and regional depots.
• Rail Freight Integration: Expanding connectivity to European rail corridors for sustainable inland distribution.
• Real-Time Vessel Tracking: Clients can monitor shipments with live GPS data and EDI updates.

Safe, Compliant, and Efficient Handling

At RGSR, we move high volumes of energy products with zero compromise on safety or compliance. Our logistics operations adhere to strict EU transportation standards, with dedicated HAZMAT handling protocols and emergency response systems in place.
