129 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE OCTOBER 2019 BLUEWING MIDSTREAM LLC gas industry. Bluewing began its operations with the purchase of seven storage tanks from a Brownsville operation that was going out of business. “There were about 50,000 barrels of storage there, which is very minimum,” says Danny Malone, Vice President of Engineering, Construction, and Operations. “Right now, under our umbrella, we’ve got 57 working tanks and that starts from the original seven that we purchased. We’ve got about 1.0 million barrels of storage, 300K under construction (8 tanks) with about another 1.6 million barrels under development. We can turn about 300 trucks a day, which is huge, and we have the capacity to do about 50 rail cars a day. So, we’ve grown really, really fast, trying to keep up with the demand for storage in South Texas.” With only 15 employees, Malone says that Bluewing typically caters to a wide variety of customers across the globe. “We’re a little bit different,” he explains. “Most of our customers are big trading outfits. A lot of the end users, like the big gas stations and airports, can’t buy fuel pictured Danny Malone, Vice President of Engineering, Construction, and Operations
