In July the expansion of the railway tincture in Dębogórz was completed – thanks to two new rail tank loading stations the capacity of the base increased by 4000 m3 per day. The base currently serves as an important fuel distribution hub, serving both rail and maritime transport.

The new infrastructure also supports the expansion of the Liquid Fuel Transhipment Station in Gdynia. The increase in storage capacity and the expansion of the rail transport system are intended to enable the future operation of tankers with a load capacity of more than 100,000 DWT, which will significantly increase the efficiency of transhipments.

In addition to Dębogórze, the Company carries out further investments in the expansion of the reservoirs: two new facilities with a capacity of 33 thousand and 24 thousand m3 will be created in Koluszki, while in Kawice a reservoir of 33 thousand m3 will be planned.

PERN also modernizes railway infrastructure – a new unloading front is being created in Nowa Wielka with 21 two-sided positions and 3.5 km of tracks, and the construction of an additional track and nine unloading stations is being prepared in Koluszki.

Modern technologies and security of transmission infrastructure

In 2025, PERN purchased and implemented DRA metering devices that allow transmission capacity to be increased to 30% at lower operating pressure; they also reduce the risk of failure by up to 40%. Such solutions increase not only operational efficiency but also the level of operational safety.
