It was built by Amoco in the 1960s, taken over by BP in 1984 and converted to an import terminal in 2015.

Land reclamation and refinery construction took place during 1963–1965, with the reclamation greatly expanding the original island and joining it to the north bank of the river.

Before and after this acquisition, expansion had increased daily capacity to 80,000 barrels per day by 1996.

The decision was made due to increasing Asian competition and a strong Australian dollar.
