Zero Safety & Environmental Incidents: The new tankers recorded no leaks, explosions, or corrosion-related failures. The anti-salt corrosion layer and leak detection system effectively prevented risks—for example, the system detected a minor sensor malfunction caused by saltwater splashes, which was repaired within 1 hour, avoiding potential leaks. The port’s environmental monitoring data showed that HETC’s NOx and PM emissions decreased by 65% and 85% respectively, making it the port’s top-performing environmental enterprise.
Full Port Compliance: All 25 tankers meet the port’s 2024 safety and environmental standards, including explosion-proof requirements, emission limits, and corrosion resistance. HETC retained its status as the port’s exclusive oil transporter, and the port authority extended its contract for 3 years.
Faster Loading/Unloading & Trip Cycles: The pneumatic control valves and compact design reduced the average trip cycle (loading-unloading-transport) from 60 minutes to 38 minutes—a 37% improvement. The number of daily trips per tanker increased from 8-10 to 12-14, and HETC’s daily oil transportation volume increased from 450 cubic meters to 700 cubic meters without adding vehicles.
Reduced Traffic Delays: The small turning radius and 360° camera system eliminated traffic jams caused by poor maneuverability. The time spent waiting for road clearance decreased from 15-20 minutes per trip to 5-8 minutes, further improving efficiency Hazardous material tanker.
Minimized Downtime: Hazardous material tanker The port-based service station and predictive maintenance reduced unplanned downtime by 60%.Hazardous material tanker The new tankers require only 1 maintenance day per month,Hazardous material tanker compared to 2-3 days for the old fleet. In 7 months, there were only 2 minor faults, both resolved within 2 hours by on-site technicians.
Fuel Cost Reduction: Hazardous material tanker The energy-saving engine and idle stop-start function reduced fuel consumption by 22%, saving ¥12,600 per tanker annually (based on 15,000 kilometers per year and ¥8 per liter diesel). For 25 tankers,tanker truck this totals ¥315,000 in annual fuel savings Oil tanker prices Hazardous material tanker.
Maintenance Cost Reduction: Oil tanker prices The corrosion-resistant design and high-quality components reduced annual maintenance costs from ¥900,000 to ¥350,000—a 61% decrease.Oil tanker prices The extended service life of the tank (from 8 years to 12 years) delayed fleet replacement,Oil tanker prices saving HETC approximately ¥4 million over 10 years Oil tanker prices.
Labor Cost Optimization: Hazardous material tanker Oil tanker prices The increased efficiency allowed HETC to handle 56% more transportation volume with the same number of drivers and operators. tanker truck This eliminated the need to hire 10 new staff tanker truck, saving ¥800,000 in annual labor costs Oil tanker prices tanker truck.
