Oil Patch Bits: Transcube XT fuel tanks transportable while full

Transcube said Aug. 8 that its XT line of high-capacity diesel fuel tanks delivers an environmentally friendly solution for fuel handling in a number of specialized applications. Conforming to all applicable government regulations, the tanks are legally transportable while full, making them ideal for rapid fuel deployment to remote locations, natural disaster sites and military operations.

Standard models in the Transcube XT line include the TCT100 and TCT200, which offer capacities of 2,450 gallons and 5,000 gallons, respectively. Each unit features a cylindrical inner tank that is specially designed to hold diesel during transport. Internal baffles assist in minimizing fuel surges while the tank is in transit or being maneuvered on a jobsite. The inner tank is enclosed within an outer wall that ensures 110 percent secondary containment to eliminate the risk of spills or ground contamination.

Built within ISO container dimensions, Transcube XT tanks are UL and ULC approved for safe diesel fuel storage. The tanks are also certified to transport fuel by road, rail and sea under codes and regulations issued by the U.S. DOT, American Society of Mechanical Engineers, UN CFR49 part 178.274, International Maritime Dangerous Goods, International Union of Railways, Transport Canada and Convention of Safe Containers.
