Challenge

Product arrived in rail tank cars and was accepted by tank dip and calibration tables. An error of a few tenths of a percent looks small, but on a full train it adds up to tonnes nobody can account for — and disputes with suppliers were settled on paper, with no measurement to point to. The terminal needed custody metering on every unloading point.

Solution

AVRON supplied custody metering for every rail unloading point and for the road tanker bay, so the terminal measures each product movement.

• Custody metering skids for rail tank car unloading — 4
• Custody metering skid for road tanker loading and unloading — 1
