For the first time in Africa, oil companies can carry liquid bitumen while heating it, thanks to SOGI's technological wizardry: Bitumen containers. 20,000-liter tanks are fixed to the inside a classical container frame, making it easy to handle them or to transport them by road or by rail.

In order to heat the product as required, the tank's interior is fitted with a pipe system called a coil, which can be carry oil heated at 250°C. The tanks are made fireproof with a layer of mineral wood.

The result: 72 hours after loaded the bitumen at 170°C, a 120°C liquid product is obtained without any further heating.
