Crude Oil Tank Trailers For Sale

About Crude Oil Tank Semitrailers

Available in capacities often ranging from 2,000 to 10,000 gallons (7,570 to 37,854 liters), crude oil tank trailers are built to spec to handle crude oil and other petroleum products. Modern crude oil tankers typically meet DOT 407 (sometimes referred to as “MC 307”) standards for low-pressure (up to 40 psi at 70 degrees Fahrenheit) liquid cargo, though it’s also possible to haul crude oil in DOT 406 (MC 306) tankers if the vapor pressure doesn’t exceed the trailer’s design pressure.

Heil 8400 Gallon Tandem DOT 407 Crude Oil Tank Trailer

Crude oil tank trailers are generally made from aluminum or stainless steel. These tanks typically feature safety devices to release internal tank pressures using relief vents on the top and/or side of the tank. These vents are also designed in a way that doesn’t allow crude oil to be released in a rollover. Many have vapor recovery systems in place to prevent vapors from reaching the atmosphere.

The tanks themselves may be insulated or uninsulated, as well as in multi-compartment units to transport different crude oil types. Manufacturers might also include high-strength bumpers and internal baffles to minimize liquid surge and provide added strength to the barrel of the tank. Piping and pumping options may also be added to improve the trailer’s ability to load and unload the crude oil.
