Klaipedos Nafta took over the functions and management of Klaipedos Naftos Terminalas, which had been in operation since 1959. The terminal operates in the ice-free Klaipeda Seaport handling export of oil products and crude oil from Mazeikiai, Moscow, Mozyr, Novopolock, Ryazanj, Ufa and other oil refineries.

Two jetties of the Klaipeda Seaport, dredged to a 14 m depth, service the Panamax type tankers with the capacity of up to 100 tons. In one hour the tankers can be filled with light oil products up to 2 000 m3, dark oil products up to 4 000 m3, and crude oil up to 3800 m3.
