The company has entered in to Fuel Transport business recently with 30 Iveco Trakkeres and increasing its number of Fuel Trucks from time to time.

Fuel transport refers to the transportation of various types of fuel, such as gasoline, diesel, natural gas, or aviation fuel, from the point of production or storage to the point of consumption or distribution. Fuel transportation plays a crucial role in ensuring a steady supply of energy to various industries, businesses, and households.

There are several methods of fuel transport, each with its advantages and considerations:

Pipelines: Pipelines are commonly used for long-distance transport of liquid fuels, such as crude oil or refined petroleum products. They offer a cost-effective and efficient means of transportation, with the ability to move large volumes of fuel over vast distances. However, they require extensive infrastructure and are not suitable for all fuel types or locations.

Tanker Ships: Tanker ships are used for transporting large quantities of fuel over long distances, particularly for crude oil and liquefied natural gas (LNG). These ships are specifically designed to carry liquid cargo and are an essential component of international fuel trade. They are efficient for long-haul journeys but can be affected by weather conditions and require appropriate port facilities.

Rail Transport: Trains are commonly employed for transporting fuels, especially across landlocked regions or areas without pipeline infrastructure. Rail transport provides flexibility in terms of routes and destinations, and it can handle both liquid and solid fuels. However, it may be costlier than pipelines for long distances and can be subject to regulatory and safety considerations.

Tanker Trucks: Tanker trucks are commonly used for distributing fuel from refineries, storage terminals, or ports to local fuel stations or end consumers. They offer flexibility in terms of delivery locations and can reach areas inaccessible by pipelines or rail. However, they are limited by their capacity and are more suitable for shorter distances or smaller-scale distribution.

Barges: Barges are used for transporting fuel on inland waterways, such as rivers and canals. They are particularly effective for serving regions with navigable water bodies and can carry large volumes of fuel. Barges are energy-efficient and provide a cost-effective option for fuel transport, especially for areas not served by pipelines or rail.
