FAQ

Here are some frequently asked Liquid Bulk questions:

What is bulk liquid?
arrow

Bulk liquid refers to large quantities of liquid substances that are transported in bulk containers or tankers. This can include items such as oil, gas, chemicals, and food-grade items like wine or edible oils. These substances are not packaged separately, but rather loaded and transported in large volumes in specially designed containers or vessels.

What is the capacity of a typical liquid bulk tanker?

A typical liquid bulk tanker can hold around 5,500 to 11,600 gallons, or approximately 20,800 to 43,900 liters. However, the exact capacity can vary depending on the specific design of the tanker, the product it’s designed to carry, and the regulations in the region where it’s being used.
