Shell Ghana has revamped operations at its Bitumen depot in Takoradi after investing about a million dollars to address some initial challenges.
The company says aside from the increased quality of its bitumen, it has also increased its storage capacity at its depot.Speaking to Joy Business, at the opening of the Shell Road Construction Conference, Commercial Manager for Shell Ghana and Togo, Sampson Annor-Quarshie said road construction works in the country should be enhanced by the development.“In the recent past we had challenges with storage capacity where one of our tanks had to be emptied and repaired but that has been done. We have revamped the bitumen plant at a very high cost and at present we have three bitumen tanks ready to supply the market” he said.“We know the Highway Authority is introducing a new grade of bitumen and currently we are using two grades of bitumen that was specified by the Ghana Highway Authority. They are bringing in a third grade. We already have a third tank so we can use that to supply the third grade when it becomes available” he concluded.
