Born out of the ancient AGIP Refinery and originally built in 1966, TIPER is now a vast storage terminal for petroleum products. After the closure of the refinery in 2000, the storage facility that remained underwent major rehabilitation and improvement.

TIPER is licensed as a Bonded Warehouse. Which is key in attracting storage of large volumes of petroleum products. Stored products can be distributed to the domestic market, exported to neighboring countries or even re-exported by ship.

TIPER is jointly owned by the Government of United Republic of Tanzania through Treasury Registrar and the Geneva based Oryx Energies SA. A team of experienced staff ensure constant customer satisfaction.
