Last month, a petroleum product distribution company in Benin contacted us and wanted to order a SINOTRUK HOWO oil tanker truck. He told me that Benin is an important fuel transit and consumption market in West Africa, and the import volume of refined oil products continues to grow. He urgently needs a tanker truck with a sealed tank body, reliable braking, and the ability to withstand Benin's tropical climate. It requires a 6 × 4 chassis and a large tank capacity. At present, this HOWO oil tanker truck has been loaded onto the ship at the port and is ready to be sent to Benin.
This SINOTRUK HOWO oil tanker truck is equipped with Weichai engine and HW series gearbox. The tank body is made of high-strength steel welded and divided into independent compartments. Gasoline and diesel can be loaded in different zones, and the head and end are locally thickened. Each compartment is equipped with a high-precision breathing valve at the top, which automatically adjusts the pressure inside the tank in high temperature and high humidity environments, preventing the tank from deforming due to oil evaporation and expansion.
The suspension system consists of multiple steel plate springs, with 9 front overhangs and 12 rear overhangs, suitable for heavy loads and harsh road conditions. All 10 tires on the car have good grip and wear resistance in mixed road conditions in Benin. Equipped with a large capacity fuel tank, it has stronger endurance. The cab is a HOWO standard type cab with air conditioning. In the hot climate of West Africa, air conditioning is standard. The cab adopts a four point hydraulic suspension shock absorber, which can effectively alleviate driver fatigue on bumpy roads.

We took a complete test video of this oil tanker truck and sent it to the customer before shipment, including driving tests under no-load and simulated full load conditions, sealing tests of the tank body, and flow tests of the oil pump. After reading it, the customer was quite satisfied and said that this configuration met their expectations. Let's arrange for shipment.
This SINOTRUK HOWO 6 × 4 oil tanker truck has now been loaded onto the ship for shipment, and the customer will receive it in approximately 30 to 35 days. For about two months before and after this cooperation, the customer went from initially observing to finally placing an order, mainly focusing on the safety configuration and overall workmanship of HOWO oil tanker trucks.
