Now quite often used by rail. Trains allow you to transport all kinds of resources, including unprocessed oil. Transit is carried out in tin tanks and cisterns designed for transportation, which are characterized by increased strength.
As a rule, the railway finds a place in the supply chain only when it is necessary to transport a relatively small amount of products over short distances. This method is used to transport bitumen, engine oil, fuel and liquefied gas.
Among the advantages is the versatility of the railway. Rails are connected to all major settlements of the state. The extensive web of ways makes it possible to supply raw materials to any place at a relatively low cost. It is widely used in logistics. For large-scale transport, the use of this type of transport is not highly efficient.
Often the transportation of liquefied gas is carried out by water transport. River or sea vessels are used. This is a fairly convenient and efficient way. The main flaw in this method relates to low speed traffic. In addition, it is one of the most difficult ways, since for loading and unloading operations it is necessary to create certain conditions at the points of reception and dispatch.
But the main advantage strikes out all the flaws. Sea transport opens up the possibility of intercontinental deliveries. This significantly increases the availability of raw materials to many countries.
The most common type of devices used for the delivery of gas and oil is road transport. This technique is used when you need to put small volumes over short distances. Most often used by small consumers. The technology is quite simple and convenient, as the car can travel almost anywhere where other communications do not reach.
The advantages include:
• high degree of maneuverability;
• good cross;
• accessibility to every consumer.
The main disadvantage is that motor vehicles cannot be used for the transit of large volumes. It is also impractical from the point of view of logistics to use the machine for delivery of cargo over long distances.
Collection, preparation and transportation of gas by each method has its own characteristics. In this case, you must strictly follow the rules that will help secure the delivery process.
11.Transit of liquefied gas by cars In the carriage of liquefied hydrocarbon raw materials machine requires a very responsible approach. This is due to the hazards of transport. Gas is subject to ignition and has explosive qualities, which implies the use of certain safety measures. The same reasoning makes us consider all sorts of situations on the road and ways to prevent them.
The specialist responsible for gas transit is obliged to strictly follow the instructions written by the company, complying with all restrictions regulated by the legislative framework. If there are any malfunctions in the functioning of the equipment, it will be necessary to immediately call the brigade to eliminate the damage and its causes. If a gas leak is observed, it is necessary to cut off a section of the road in order to avoid casualties from a possible explosion.
Liquefied gas, the transportation of which is strictly regulated, must be transported in tanks that have undergone specialized certification. Only after passing through this procedure are they allowed to be used. Immediately before each logistics operation, they are carefully inspected by trained personnel.
