Bomin and Matrix move to new office in Houston


Bunker supply firms are relocating to the same address in downtown Houston.



Following the acquisition of the Bomin International Group of companies by Mabanaft in June 2012, Houston bunker suppliers Matrix Marine Fuels LLC. and Bominflot Bunker Oil Corp. are moving to new office accommodation in downtown Houston.

Effective from June 24, 2013, both companies will relocate to the following address:

Three Allen Center
333 Clay Street, Suite 2400
Houston, TX 77002

All email addresses, telephone and fax numbers for both companies will remain the same.

Effective from the same date, Bominflot Bunker Oil Corp. will change its name to Bomin Bunker Oil Corp., recognizing the rebranding of the Bomin Group worldwide. Other US-based subsidiary companies (Bominflot Inc., and Bominflot Atlantic LLC.) will also reflect this change.

Matrix Marine and Bomin Bunker Oil Corp. are physical suppliers of marine fuels in the cluster of ports in the Houston area (Freeport, Texas to Lake Charles, Louisiana range). Together, the companies command a significant market share, with Matrix specializing in ex-pipe deliveries, and Bomin concentrating on barge-supplied deliveries.
