Why tanker operators choose Tranter’s solutions
Cargo kept pumpable and profitable
Our solutions support deck heating systems that maintain viscosity without wasting energy, keeping transfers smooth and efficient.
Durable in seawater and chemicals
Tanker environments are harsh: saltwater outside, aggressive cargo atmospheres inside. We test and choose materials that withstand both.
Compact and weight-conscious designs
Every ton counts. Our exchangers are built lightweight and space-efficient, fitting crowded machinery rooms and reducing vessel deadweight.
Maintenance that fits port calls
Frames that open quickly and accessible layouts make cleaning and inspection faster, so turnarounds don’t overrun limited docking windows.
Global service wherever you trade
From Rotterdam to Singapore, OEM parts and service are available worldwide, keeping your fleet supported on every route.
Tanker Industry
Explore our specialized expertise
Crude oil tankers
Crude oil has to be kept warm enough to flow. Our solutions transfer heat from steam or hot water into cargo systems with extreme precision.
Keeping oil at a pumpable viscosity during long voyages and unloading means fewer delays in port and less wasted energy.
Chemical tankers
Chemical cargoes are even less forgiving than crude oil. From acids to solvents, every product has its own safe temperature range.
Tranter heat exchangers deliver the exact thermal control needed to keep chemicals stable and pumpable all the way from loading terminal to delivery.

Applications in the tanker industry
Clean fuel engines
With IMO regulations tightening, tankers are moving toward LNG and low-sulphur fuels.
Tranter heat exchangers provide the reliability and corrosion resistance these systems demand and more, ensuring both compliance and efficiency.
Engine cooling
Tanker propulsion systems face long periods of sustained load. Our thermal solutions provide stable cooling at all times, protecting engines from overheating and extending service life.
Deck heating
For crude oil and product carriers, cargo must remain pumpable at unloading.
Tranter heat exchangers transfer heat into deck systems efficiently, ensuring cargo stays within spec without wasting energy.
Innovation with your future in mind
For tanker fleets, innovation is about meeting strict regulations while protecting cargo value. Our R&D focuses on:
- Plate designs that foul less in heavy-fuel and seawater applications.
- New materials that withstand both marine conditions and chemical exposure even better.
- More compact layouts that recover more heat without adding complexity.
