MISSION & VALUES
Our mission is to provide safe and reliable transport on the Danube, as well as ensure the safe and efficient loading and unloading of river barges in our terminal facilities. Through consistent cooperation with our suppliers and our clients, we strive to continuously progress and maintain the highest European industry standards. BEO TRADE COM- LORATEL HOLDINGS Group concerns itself with the continuous improvement of its service quality, protecting the natural environment and ensuring a safe and healthy work environment. Our integrated management system and policies aim to satisfy the expectations of our clients and various local or international stakeholders.
MULTIMODAL LOGISTICS
We are one of the few companies in the European market that does multimodal transport of petrochemical goods, namely combined rail, transshipment and river transport. To achieve this, we maintain working relationships with public and private rail operators in Romania, striving always to offer the highest level of efficiency. The transported product is loaded into or out of our river barges. The transshipment takes place in our privately owned terminal station with the help of our skilled personnel and logistics experts.
At the request of our clients, we also offer these services separately.
RIVER TRANSPORT
Loratel Holdings was first established in 1996. Initially, the company carried out trading activities with chemical and petrochemical products. After many years of experience, at the request of our clients and in an attempt to outperform our competitors, Loratel Holdings extended its portofolio to transport services of these products, from the refinery all the way to the final destination. In 2005, the company Beo Trade Com was born, to cater to the growing demands of our clients in Romania. Fast- forward to today, BEO TRADE COM owns and operates several self-propelled tankers and two tank barges. Our operations extend along the Danube River, from Constanța port to Vienna. Our ships call on multiple ports in Romania, Serbia, Hungary, Slovakia and Austria, and have reached the Rotterdam port in the past, passing through the Main and Rhein River.
TRANSPORT FEROVIAR
Transportul feroviar reprezintă un segment foarte important din lanțului nostru logistic, multimodal. Acesta asigură o flexibilitate mai mare care ne ajută să depășim provocări complexe. Cu scopul de a satisface nevoile clienților nostri, Beo Trade Com a dezvoltat relații de încredere cu furnizorii de servicii feroviare din Romania. Toate acestea nu ar fi posibile fără expertiza personalului nostru. Angajând experți in domeniu, ne asigurăm că operațiunile noastre se desfășoară în conformitate cu cele mai înalte standarde de siguranță și sustenabilitate feroviară, cu accent pe protecția mediului.
TRANSHIPMENT
In the heart of our Multimodal logistics is the transshipment of petrochemical products from rail wagons to our barges or vice versa. The loading/unloading systems (between the concrete ramp that holds the rail wagons and the mooring pontoon for river vessels) of petrol products, are sealed in order to create safe conditions during the operations and minimize gas emissions. To this end, we have equipped our terminal with a Vapor Recovery Unit, that effectively treats gas streams containing hydrocarbons in order to meet the required emission limits. In addition to safety and environmental protection, we also ensure efficiency. We guarantee that any losses between the quantity loaded in the refinery and the quantity unloaded at the final destination are limited to 0.25%.
RAIL PORT OPERATOR
Drobeta Turnu Severin is an industrial town, in the south-west part of Romania on the shores of the Danube River. This is where our terminal station is located. Within the local industrial port, only 20km away from the Danube Iron Gates, BEO TRADE COM is the sole operator of rail cars for transshipment purposes of petrochemical products. This is another step that separates us from the competition and allows us to grow strong roots in the Romanian and European sector of inland waterways transport services.
TERMINAL PETROLIER
Terminalul nostru de petrolier, din Drobeta Turnu Severin are o capacitate de transbordare de 3.000 tone/zi și deține certificat de conformitate eliberat de Autoritatea Navală Română. Terminalul este dotat cu o rampa utilizata pentru procesul de încărcare și descărcare a mărfurilor din vagoanele feroviare în nave. Toate instalațiile dispun de sisteme de protecție pentru a evita degajarea de vapori şi poluarea mediului înconjurător. Pompele pentru transvazare sunt prevăzute cu sisteme de siguranță automatizate, pentru a minimiza riscul de poluare, în cazul oricărei disfuncții.
