Operators and the area around the fuel tanker are at risk during loading and unloading. Your highest priorities are keeping employees safe and the land free from contamination. The scale of your loading operations will impact the necessary fuel tanker loading equipment and what is necessary for a safe operation. Whether you are transporting water, ammonia, biodiesel, or something else, it’s your duty to create reliable loading operations that you and your team can count on.

Northern Platforms has the equipment you need to maximize your working systems’ potential. Keep reading to learn how we can help you obtain the most reliable, safe equipment tailored to your needs. 

Bottom Loading Arms

Northern Platform’s bottom loading arms are an industry standard in oil and gas for a reason. The fuel tanker loading equipment you use will affect the loading time, as bottom loading arms reduce vapour pressure and, therefore, the length of loading. As we move into fall, the cooler temperatures can affect your loading operations. Our OPW Bottom Loading Arm Systems are ideal for quicker connections, reducing static electricity, and reducing expenses. With trustworthy brands like OPW and Emco Wheaton at your disposal, you can streamline production for your fuel tanker loading operations through quality products at Northern Platforms. 

Ensure Safe Loading

With the right bottom loading arms, you are minimizing the time required per load. But much like we do not ask for a car without airbags, having the loading arms without proper safety equipment puts you at high risk of something going wrong. The following are some of the safety measures we offer:

• Bottom-Loading Couplers: Ready for same-day shipment only at Northern Platforms. A five-year warranty and automatic latching are just two reasons this coupler is the best in the business.
• Breakaway Couplings: Designed for easy release in the event of an accidental pull-away.
• Grounding & Overfill Systems: For grounding and overfill systems, Northern Platforms supplies Civacon and Scully overfill monitors with extensive interface compatibility, signals for automatic shutoff, and more.
• & More: Take a look through our complete catalogue of loading system accessories.

If you are in the oil and gas industry, bottom loading arms are the perfect fuel tanker loading equipment. Combined with the above safety features, you’ll ensure proper attention is given to people and processes.
