Oil tanker unloading systems

Fast, accurate, and transparent offloading of liquids from ships with Endress+Hauser metering skids

Oil tankers are often used for liquid transfer in the Oil and Gas industry. From petroleum to fuel and crude oil, marine transportation of such significant volumes poses many challenges for operators. Depending on pump and hose capacity, vessel tank offloading can take up to 24 hours. Safety in operations is vital, as is accurate measurement to avoid disputes, particularly when terminals share moorings. Endress+Hauser solutions assist in these challenges and increase efficiency.

  • Slash negotiation times by up to 100%

    Designed to your requirements, and fitted with our advanced Coriolis flowmeters, Endress+Hauser metering skids offer high flowrates, are certified to OIML R 117 for custody transfer accuracy and integrate Heartbeat technology for verification to IEC 61511-1, diagnostics to Namur NE 107. Save time in ship unloading operations with safe, increased throughput. Avoid disputes with traceable, secure, and transparent transfers. Sustain compliance to international and local standards.
