Bulk lubricants
We opened a bulk oils and greases facility at Pinkenba Terminal in 2016. It is the largest in Australia, with a storage capacity of 3.2ML and can manage up to 30 lubricant grades. The bulk lubricants terminal is complemented by a third party lubricants warehouse.
Delivering sustainable aviation fuel
As a drop-in solution, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) will help the aviation industry begin the transition to a lower carbon future.
We are jointly funding a project with Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) to establish a supply chain to deliver SAF into Brisbane airport and implement a book and claim system.

In the community
Our Pinkenba Terminal is a member of the Gateway Mutual Aid Group (GMAG).
GMAG member organisations work together to help prevent incidents, and to mitigate any potential impact to the community and the environment in the event of a major emergency.
GMAG publishes an annual calendar to provide guidance on Community Emergency Response Steps. You can access the calendar here.
We also regularly attend meetings held by the Pinkenba Community Association, to provide updates about our operations and projects at the Pinkenba Terminal, and to answer questions from the community.
Site alarms
The alarms at Pinkenba Terminal are a vital way of ensuring that our people on-site respond to incidents quickly and safely.
There are two types of alarms:
General Alarm
30 seconds of an alarm with an alternating pitch. In the event of an incident, the general alarm will sound for one minute or longer.
All clear
30 seconds of continuous sounding of the siren. This signifies that the incident is under control.
The alarm is tested at 10am on the second Wednesday of every month. An alarm heard any other time means an on-site incident has occurred that requires attention by terminal personnel.
The community does not need to take action when an alarm sounds, unless instructed by the Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES) or Police. In the event of an emergency please call 000.
Environmental compliance
We operate our Pinkenba Terminal in compliance with conditions set out in the Environmental Authority Permit issued by the Department of Environment and Science (DES).
We are required to meet all of the environmental conditions stipulated in the Environmental Authority Permit.
Prepared for emergencies
We have a comprehensive emergency response plan for Pinkenba Terminal that involves documented procedures, staff training, and maintaining a register of hazardous goods. We conduct regular emergency response exercises in conjunction with emergency service organisations to test our plans.
