This is a used fuel tank semi-trailer — sometimes referred to as a tanker semi-trailer — built by Trailor, a French manufacturer long established in the production of tank trailers and specialist semi-trailers serving the fuel distribution, road haulage, and petrochemical transport industries. This example is designed to carry and distribute liquid fuels in bulk, making it a core piece of equipment for fuel logistics operators, distributors, and depot supply chains.
The trailer has a gross weight rating of 38 tonnes and a total tank capacity of 40,000 litres, divided across nine separate compartments. The individual compartment capacities, as stated by the seller, are 4,227, 6,225, 3,172, 2,139, 5,220, 2,144, 3,180, 6,272, and 7,334 litres respectively. This multi-compartment configuration allows the simultaneous transport of different fuel grades or products in a single load, which is standard practice in fuel delivery operations.
The trailer runs on three SMB axles with air suspension, providing a smoother ride for liquid cargo and reducing stress on the tank structure and road surface. One of the axles is a lift axle, allowing it to be raised when the trailer is unladen or lightly loaded, reducing tyre wear and improving manoeuvrability. The trailer is fitted with ABS, adding braking safety in line with modern road transport requirements.
The trailer was first registered on 9 May 1996 and carries registration number BQ 158 XW. Its pressure test certification runs until 11 August 2026, confirming that the tank has been formally inspected and approved for continued use up to that date. The unit is located at SAVIM, 165 Chemin du Guigonnet, 13270 Fos-sur-Mer, France, where it is available for inspection.
