Wolverine Terminals begins commercial operations at marine bunkering facility

Wolverine Terminals recently announced the start of commercial operations at its newly constructed marine bunkering facility in Prince Rupert, British Columbia. 

Wolverine Terminals will offer transloading, marine fuel storage, and distribution services, significantly improving supply chain efficiency for fuel products such as marine grade diesel and very low sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO).

The facility is designed to support the growing demand for efficient fuel handling and storage solutions across Western Canada and North America. 

“This major milestone positions Wolverine Terminals as a key player in the Western Canadian marine logistics sector, providing innovative and environmentally responsible terminal services,” it said on its website. 

Kelly Owen, President of Wolverine Terminals, said: “Today marks a significant achievement for our company, our partners and the community. Our goal has always been to offer best-in-class logistics services while minimising environmental impact and contributing to the economic growth of the port and the region.”

“The start of our commercial operations is the culmination of years of planning, development, and partnership, and we look forward to growing alongside our customers and the Port of Prince Rupert.”

The terminal’s design allows for connectivity to key Canadian transportation networks, including rail and marine, making it a strategic hub for national and international markets.

Wolverine Terminals has made sustainability a core focus of its operations, with eco-friendly initiatives such as reduced emissions technology, enhanced spill prevention measures, and a commitment to responsible resource management.
