Texas/USA – Clariant Oil Services, a leading producer and supplier of specialty oilfield production chemicals and services to the oil and gas industry, has expanded its commitment to Norwegian Oil and Gas customers with a new bulk storage and transfer base located in Dusavik, Norway together with its long-standing strategic partner Swire Energy Services. The new site consists of multiple bulk storage tanks with transfer capability to supply either directly to vessels or tote tanks. The system is fully automated to ensure chemicals are transferred accurately and efficiently, and full operations are expected in September 2025.

“Norway's oil and gas market is in a significant growth phase, and we are strategically positioning ourselves to support this expansion," commented Samy El-Khoury, Head of Oil Services EMEA. "This base represents our commitment to supporting our customers' growth aspirations in this thriving market."

Located in Stavanger, the Dusavik base will be key for supply and support activities in the Norwegian North Sea sector. As one of the major energy and maritime clusters in Norway, Dusavik offers access to high quality and mission critical infrastructure and local access to more than 60 service companies.

The new base includes a Quality Control laboratory and administration office alongside the bulk transfer storage. Additional storage capacity for Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC) and totes is located adjacent to the bulk storage facility to ensure all chemicals are contained in the same area. The laboratory can conduct a range of quality control assessments, with additional analysis available nearby in Tananger.
