Tanker Loading

Tanker Loading Solutions

As technology and safety legislation develops the tanker loading industry is gradually converting from top to bottom loading which brings many advantages.  The safety of operators is paramount, so having the ability to get drivers from the top of tankers and down to ground level during loading operations is preferred.  This also reduces the need for expensive high level access stairways and safety harnesses.  Additionally, another important advantage of bottom loading is the ability to load multiple compartments simultaneously which therefor reduces the time the truck spends in the depot and more time out delivering these valuable commodities.

As we move away from fossil fuels, renewable fuels are providing an increasing amount of our energy requirements.  Being able to blend fuels at the loading point reduces the need for tank stock blending and helps homogenous blends during the transportation process.  Additionally, chemical additives are being used in fuels to carry out many functions including marker dyeing, anti-corrosion, performance improvement to name a few.  Contrec tanker loading systems are can be used to work alongside modern additive systems to deliver the correct amount of additive to the fuel being loaded.
