Strategic energy infrastructure projects in West Africa and East-CentralAfrica managed by TCPMS
Project 1: West Africa Coastal Tank Farm & Marine Terminal
Strategic Infrastructure | Status: Under Study
Quick Facts:
Location: West African Coast (specific location under commercial assessment)
Scope: Coastal storage terminal + marine jetty + truck loading infrastructure
Status: Preliminary technical and commercial assessment
TCPMS Role: 4PL Control Tower anchor project
Project Overview:
A proposed coastal storage and marine loading terminal in West Africa, designed to serve regional imports and strategic stock holding for refined products and feed stock.
This facility will address critical infrastructure gaps in the region, providing a modern,compliant hub for energy product distribution across West Africa while serving as a strategic stock holding point for international energy flows.
Project Scope:

- Crude oil storage
- Refined products storage (gasoline, diesel, fuel oil)
- Specialty chemicals storage (as required)
Marine jetty connections
- Designed for VLCC (Very Large Crude Carriers) operations
- Multiple berth capability
- Weather-resilient design
Truck loading racks
- Multi-product loading capability
- Safety and environmental containment
- Integration with tank farm operations
Pipeline connections
- Future pipeline network readiness
- Modular design for expansion
- Integration with inland distribution
Current Status:
Preliminary technical and commercial assessment underway for:
1. Location Optimization
- Port infrastructure evaluation
- Logistics corridor analysis
- Regional supply/demand assessment
- Land/facility availability
2. Storage Capacity Sizing
- Regional throughput requirements
- Seasonal demand patterns
- Strategic stock holding levels
- Future expansion capacity
3. Jetty Configuration
- Vessel type compatibility (VLCC, Aframax, smaller)
- Water depth and dredging requirements
- Weather/sea state resilience
- Emergency response protocols
4. Pipeline Connection Feasibility
- Route options
- Regulatory requirements
- Cross-border considerations
- Infrastructure costs & timelines
TCPMS Role:
TCPMS is evaluating this project as a potential 4PL control tower anchor—a flagship operation that would establish our presence in West African energy logistics while serving as a hub for broader regional operations.
In this role, we would:
- Planning & Advisory:
Contribute to final facility design, operational workflows, andefficiency optimization - Control Tower Design:
Establish the integrated operations layer managing all tankflows, maritime operations, and truck logistics - Partner Network:
Coordinate with terminal operators, shipping providers, trucklogistics companies and regulatory authorities - Operations Management:
Provide real-time coordination ensuring seamless product movement and maximum facility efficiency.
This project represents the scale and complexity of operations TCPMS is designed to manage.

TCPMS Role:
TCPMS is assessing this project as a long-term 4PL control tower opportunity, positioningourselves as the integrated operations partner for a transformational regionalinfrastructure asset.
As the control tower partner, TCPMS would:
- Strategic Advisory:
Contribute to final routing, capacity planning, and operational design - Operations Design:
Establish control systems managing product flows from inland terminal through pipeline to coastal hub - Partner Coordination:
Coordinate with pump operators, terminal operators,shipping providers and regulatory authorities - Real-Time Management:
Provide 24/7 operations center managing product movements, ensuring safety compliance, and optimizing network efficiency
Leveraging our wider group capabilities, we would bring:
- International project finance expertise
- Large-scale infrastructure operations experience
- Regulatory and compliance advisory
- Technology platforms for control tower operations
