Managing Energy, Minimizing Risk
News
The law of 21 December 2023 transforms APETRA into ASEVA.
ASEVA continues to manage the security oil stocks, but may, subject to a decision by the federal government, manage other energy reserves in the future.
Our financial situation, shareholding, corporate data, bank accounts and modus operandi remain unchanged.

The new framework agreement for storage of energy products has been published. Companies that are interested to store and manage energy products (in a first phase oil products) for account of ASEVA in the coming years need to send in a tender for the first phase of this framework agreement latest on Friday 15th March 2024, 12 o’clock by means of the e-Procurement platform. This is a closed procedure: if you have not entered a valid tender before the deadline, you will not receive calls for tender for individual storage contracts in the coming years! For more information, the specifications and the documents to submit: see: storage
About us
ASEVA, a public limited company with the federal State as sole shareholder, manages the Belgian security oil stocks. The amount to stocks that at minimum needs to be held is based upon the net imports of crude oil and oil products into Belgium in the previous year.
Subject to a decision by the federal government, ASEVA will in future also be able to manage additional energy stocks other than those stipulated in EU Directive 2009/119/EC.
ASEVA’s management tasks focus on three pillars:
ASEVA’s functioning and the management of the oil security stocks are funded by means of a contribution payable on major oil products put into consumption.
ASEVA’s board of directors consist of representatives from the government and the oil (storage) sector. The daily management is undertaken by a limited staff.
