Royal Vopak(HQ in Netherland), the world’s leading independent storage and infrastructure operator, has announced the opening of its new office in Tokyo. This expansion aligns with Vopak’s strategy to accelerate its new energy and LNG business, adding Japan to its global network of terminals across 23+ countries. The new office will support Japanese companies in their transition to low-carbon energy solutions.
With over 400 years of expertise, Vopak is a global leader in storing and handling critical products such as LNG, ammonia, liquid chemicals, and biofuels.

To support Japan’s 2050 carbon neutrality goal, Vopak will collaborate with industry leaders to develop infrastructure for hydrogen, ammonia, CO₂, and LNG. The company has committed €1 billion toward sustainable energy investments by 2030, reinforcing its role in the energy transition.
