Mitigating Risk during Project Development
While developing a tank terminal, like with any other industrial infrastructure project, one runs risks. The commercial risks are for the commercial manager or trader to manage typically by means of business cases The financing risks are for themanage, typically by means of business cases. The financing risks are for the financial manager to manage through negotiating with banks and equity providers.
The inherent project development risks are for the project manager to manage. In this presentation we present the main project risks and how to mitigate them.

If you move one of the three, at least one of the others
will move as well!

Main reasons for delayMain reasons for delay• Partnerships• Government relationsInitial steps• Initial steps can take years!
• Unclear infrastructure requirements• Long discussions about next steps
Initial steps
Starting up the development
• Long permit procedures• Funding (you know better then me)
The details: funding and permits
C t ti th t ti • Long tendering process
• Defaulting contractors
Contracting the construction

- Size, expressed in m3 storage capacity- Marine infrastructure- Products stored, gasoline or gasoil/fueloil
Value is determined by location, location and
