As a courtesy to our valued customers and suppliers, we would like to inform you that Bergen Energi has been acquired by World Fuel Services Europe, Ltd. (WFS). On November 2, 2015, World Fuel Services Corporation announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, World Fuel Services Europe, Ltd., purchased European energy management services company, Bergen Energi.
This acquisition complements WFS’ well-established energy services business in North America, and facilitates an expansion of these services to customers across Europe. Headquartered in Miami, Florida, WFS is a global fuel logistics and transaction processing company, principally engaged in the distribution of energy products and services in aviation, marine and land at more than 8,000 locations worldwide.
Under this new ownership, we want to provide our customer with the following advantages on top of today’s well known services:
- Access to a worldwide energy network
- More competitive offering in risk management products and set-up
- Strength for further growth and development
Until further notice, Bergen Energi will continue to operate under the same name and there are no changes to your point of contact or to company information. As of the acquisition date, the main shareholder and former CEO Bill Schjelderup has been replaced by Terry Cogan as new CEO.
We greatly appreciate your business and look forward to continuing to serve you with the best of Bergen Energi and World Fuel Services. Should you have any questions or concerns, please contact your Key Account Manager or email kolbjorn.hembre@bergen-energi.com.
