Advanced Manufacturing: Precision Built for African Conditions

Each tanker destined for Dangote service is manufactured from premium high-strength alloy plates, processed through our state-of-the-art automated laser cutting system to ensure dimensional accuracy and uniformity. This precision foundation eliminates dimensional errors before fabrication begins.

Automated Precision

State-of-the-art laser cutting ensures dimensional accuracy and uniformity across all 580 units—zero tolerance for dimensional errors

Robotic Welding

MIG/TIG robotic welding technology delivers superior deep penetration and flawless bead formation—the invisible infrastructure of reliability

100% NDT Testing

Every weld undergoes ultrasonic inspection with pressure-resistance verification—absolute assurance, not sampling protocols

African Conditions

Engineered for extreme heat, challenging terrain, and long-distance transport—built to withstand Africa's unique operational demands

The critical longitudinal and circumferential welds are executed using robotic MIG/TIG welding technology, delivering superior deep penetration and flawless bead formation—the invisible infrastructure that guarantees long-term structural reliability. Every weld undergoes rigorous 100% non-destructive testing, combining ultrasonic inspection with pressure-resistance verification.

Intelligent Manufacturing for Fleet-Scale Consistency

Our integrated digital quality tracking system monitors every production stage in real-time, from CNC forming through automated polishing to comprehensive leak testing. This intelligent manufacturing approach enables us to deliver large-volume orders—like this Dangote fleet—while maintaining identical quality standards across every single unit.

Manufacturing Excellence:

Consistency at scale is what distinguishes manufacturers from suppliers. Each of the 580 tankers meets identical specifications—no compromises, no exceptions.

A Partnership for Africa's Energy Future

Strategic Partnership

  • • Reliable transport infrastructure
  • • Proven manufacturing discipline
  • • Understanding of Africa's challenges
  • • Long-term commitment to quality

Fleet Impact

  • • Expanded logistics capability
  • • Accelerated fuel distribution
  • • Improved supply chain efficiency
  • • Enhanced safety records

Dangote doesn't just need tankers; they need a reliable transport infrastructure that supports the company's petroleum distribution network across Nigeria. With 580 units of 50-cubic-meter capacity, this fleet significantly expands Dangote's logistics capability, enabling accelerated fuel distribution and improved supply chain efficiency.

Our tankers reduce downtime, improve safety records, and enable Dangote to operate with confidence across Nigeria's diverse transportation corridors. Delivering 580 units of identical quality demonstrates our manufacturing maturity—not a single compromise across the entire fleet.

"580 tankers, one standard—where engineering excellence meets Africa's energy ambitions."
