"Our commitment to innovation combined with our focus on prioritizing the health and safety of our people and the environment has elevated Zenith’s position as an industry leader. Integrity is at the heart of everything we do as a company." - Jeff Armstrong, CEO[5]

US Terminals

Portland

Operator of the Portland Terminal, where 90% of the State of Oregon's petroleum is stored & distributed from.[6]

Zenith Energy claims to be leading Portland’s renewable fuel transition, in a one-pager quoting the City of Portland Climate Emergency Workplan (2022-2025).[7]

One pager on "Zenith’s preparedness for a seismic event" (the upcoming Cascadian Megaquake).[8]

3-time winner of the fossil fuel ILTA lobby's safety award over the last decade, despite the Portland Bureau of Emergency Management 2021 warning that with the next next Cascadian Megaquake, Zenith Energy's "Critical Energy Infrastructure Hub and all the tank farms there pose a really grave threat to the city, the county, the region, the whole state, and environment in an earthquake," which “we've known for a long time."[9]
