9 years ago

Logistics company Toll is completing the purchase of the Dampier Supply Base in Western Australia from MMA Offshore. The purchase was foreshadowed in February and the final details have been confirmed following approvals received from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission and Foreign Investment Review Board.

The facility includes six operational berths and a ro-ro facility. Vessels up to 130 metres can be accommodated at the berths.

Toll managing director, Michael Byrne said the acquisition would add to Toll’s ability to support the oil and gas sector and add to an integrated network covering freight forwarding, customs clearance and domestic transportation, storage and operations support.

He said having Toll’s national and international capabilities as part of the Dampier Supply Base would offer customers an opportunity to expand their current operations and explore new opportunities.
