Thanks, I will take a look at them. I see that one of the partnerships owns the terminal facility at St. Eustatius which I assume is the old storage facility originally built by a subsidiary of Chicago Bridge and Iron. If I recall correctly, it went private. Looks like one of the partnerships now owns it. License to print money, IMO. I learned quite a bit about the St. Eustatius facility b/c I litigated a case involving an emergency response vessel operated by the terminal company, Statia Terminals. Soundly kicked Chicago Bridge and Iron's butt. No telling what the deal is now, but when I litigated the case, the terminal company had a juicy take or pay contract with ARAMCO. If the same kind of deal is in place now, it is extremely profitable. There was also a Deer Park TX facility as well as one in Canada. A simple cost plus business. How many companies in the world can discharge supertankers, then store the oil until a smaller tanker comes to pick it up?
