Delta Trading LP
Delta Trading, L.P. uses its location at “Paloma Gulf Station” in Kern County to take advantage of its superior access to rail and truck transportation. Gulf siding is serviced by BNSF & UP Class A rail transportation carriers. The local service to Gulf Station is provided by RailAmerica’s San Joaquin Valley Rail Road. SJVRR provides 5 switches per week. Our close proximity to I-5, the major central highway in California, provides excellent truck access for our customers.
Delta's crude aggregation system of crude oil gather has become one of the major core business units within our plant structure that also hosts asphalt blending, chemical transloading, and clean product handling. Additionally, Delta has installed an emulsion facility providing us with small specialty asphalt capabilities. That has led to our partnership with EcoStar to produce world class paving maintenance materials and reconstruction binders for use in the road and airport industry. The base material of Carbon Plex H-25 is licensed to Delta by EcoStar.
Further, Crimson Renewable Energy has installed a state of the art glycerin and biodiesel facility at Paloma. They are capable of servicing a large part of the California market in biodiesel and world wide market in premium graded glycerin.
