The acquisition further strengthens Global’s
operational capabilities and supply options in the Northeast
Global Partners LP (NYSE:GLP) (“Global” or the “Partnership”)
announced today that it has successfully completed the acquisition
of a liquid energy terminal in East Providence, Rhode Island from
the ExxonMobil Oil Corporation.
The East Providence terminal, featuring 10 product tanks with
959,730-barrel shell capacity, serves as a strategic storage
facility for various products, including gasoline, additives,
distillates, and ethanol. It includes a six-bay truck rack
servicing the Rhode Island, Northern Connecticut, and Southern
Massachusetts markets, as well as a large dock with capabilities to
accommodate long-range vessels.
"The acquisition of the East Providence terminal aligns
perfectly with our strategic goals," said Eric Slifka, President
and Chief Executive Officer of Global Partners LP.
The addition of gasoline infrastructure through this transaction
will enable Global to optimize its large, active marketing and
retail presence in the area. In addition to the terminal, Global
will acquire surplus vacant real estate parcels providing long-term
opportunities for alternative uses as market dynamics evolve.
Slifka continued, "The additional operational capabilities and
supply optionality, along with the potential for real estate
development, further deliver our commitment to strategic growth by
diversifying our portfolio and capitalizing on assets that leverage
our integrated network.”
