Info
Federation of European Tank Storage Associations (FETSA)
EU Transparency Register
60758835312-16 First registered on 15 Feb 2011
Goals / Remit
The Federation of European Tank Storage Associations (FETSA) represents the 7 National Associations of Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, The Netherlands and the United Kingdom. Our statutes allow also companies to apply for associate membership in the absence of a National Tank Storage Association. The geographical scope for membership tallies with the United Nations’ Council of Europe. This means that Turkish, Swedish, and Polish operators are now formally belonging to the FETSA family and we hope to expand this to many other Tank Storage companies in and outside the EU.
In aggregate, FETSA is entitled to speak on behalf of over 160 enterprises. Many of these are large global players with installations in ports all over the world. Tank Storage Companies that are through their National Associations represented in FETSA combine close to 50 per cent of the world storage capacity in bulk liquids i.e. crude oil and oil products, chemicals, edible oils and fats and gases.It i (...)Main EU files targeted
REACH, BREF Storage, Carbon Leakage, energy security, Seveso III, WGC BREF, Safety and Environmental issues, Cyber Security, Digitalisation, EU Green Deal, Competition policy, Transport Issues, Energy Transition, clean hydrogen, strategic energy storage.
