Cryopeak LNG Solutions, based in Richmond BC, Canada, recently developed what it says is the first “Super B-train” liquefied natural gas (LNG) hauling trailer to optimize small-scale LNG transportation in Canada.
The 20,700-gallon tank trailer is designed to be interoperable across Canada, and is in full compliance with Transport Canada rules and regulations for the transportation of liquefied natural gas, the company maintained.
Cryopeak said it developed the trailer to help provide natural gas solutions for companies and municipalities that are looking to transition to an environmentally sustainable and competitive fuel source.
The new Super B-train trailer is a “breakthrough technology” designed to have 70% more capacity than standard trailers operating in Canada.
“Our customers are seeking lower costs associated with the transportation of LNG in Canada and we are pleased to have four new Super B-train trailers entering service in the Cryopeak fleet at the beginning of 2020,” said Calum McClure, CEO of Cryopeak. “This new transportation solution will improve the competitiveness of LNG, as transportation costs represent often the largest cost of LNG supplied to our customers.”
Cryopeak, a leading distributor of LNG in Canada founded in 2012, has a fleet of 16 tankers, as well as equipment and technologies for storage, regassification and fuel dispensing. The company is ISO 9001 certified, and has emergency plans approved by Transport Canada.
