Petroleum/ Fuel Tankers – Truck & Tanks

Petroleum/Fuel Tankers Built for Canadian Fleets

Dependable Truck & Tank designs and builds petroleum/fuel tankers for fuel distributors, oilfield service companies, and commercial fleets across Canada. From a single straight fuel truck to a full Super B configuration, every unit is built to move gasoline, diesel, and other petroleum products safely and efficiently.

What Are Petroleum/Fuel Tankers?

Petroleum/fuel tankers are purpose-built tanks, mounted on a straight truck chassis or pulled as a trailer, engineered to transport regulated fuel products like gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. Fleets across Canada rely on a well-built fuel tank truck to move product from terminal to customer without downtime or compliance risk.

Whether you need a single-compartment straight truck for local delivery or a multi-axle petroleum tanker trailer for long-haul bulk transport, Dependable Truck & Tank builds each unit around the routes, products, and volumes your operation runs.

Petroleum/Fuel Tanker Configurations We Build

Every fleet moves fuel differently, so we build petroleum/fuel tankers in the configuration that matches your operation.

Super B Fuel Tanker

Our Super B fuel tanker builds a lead and pup trailer for maximum payload on long-haul bulk fuel routes, the standard configuration across Western Canada’s oil and gas corridors.

B-Train Fuel Tanker

A B-train fuel tanker connects two trailers through a fixed fifth wheel rather than a converter dolly, giving fleets better stability and control when hauling heavy petroleum loads.

Tri-Drive Fuel Truck

For mountain routes and heavier axle loads, a tri-drive fuel truck adds a third drive axle to the tractor, giving crews the traction and weight distribution demanding terrain requires.

Multi-Compartment Fuel Truck

A multi-compartment fuel truck lets one unit carry more than one product, such as diesel and gasoline, in separated, vented compartments without cross-contamination.

Straight Trucks & Tandem Trailers

For local and regional delivery, we also build single and tandem-axle units sized to your route, customer base, and product mix.

Built to TC406 and DOT 406 Standards

Every petroleum/fuel tanker we build meets DOT 406 petroleum tanker requirements for cross-border routes, and Transport Canada’s equivalent code for domestic hauls. A TC406 fuel tank truck is engineered as a low-pressure, oval tank for gasoline, diesel, and other flammable liquids, with construction that goes beyond the minimum code.

Standard safety features include rollover protection at the manholes and vents, high-strength bumpers, pressure relief vents, and internal baffles that reduce liquid surge and add strength to the barrel. Multi-compartment tanks include vented void sections between compartments to prevent cross-contamination.

We build in aluminum for maximum payload or steel for heavier-duty service, depending on your route and product.

Applications Across Canada's Fuel Supply Chain

Our petroleum/fuel tankers are built for the full range of fuel and petroleum delivery work Canadian fleets handle every day.

Diesel and Gasoline Delivery: A diesel and gasoline delivery truck built to your route keeps cardlocks, retail stations, and bulk plants supplied on schedule.
Aviation Refuelling: Our jet fuel truck builds are configured for airside fuelling at regional airports, with compartment and hose options suited to aviation fuel handling.
Lubricant and Used Oil Service: An oil tank truck from Dependable Truck & Tank handles lubricant delivery and used oil pickup for service fleets and industrial customers.
Oilfield and Bulk Transport: From lease sites to terminal-to-terminal moves, our petroleum tanker trailers are built for the payload and durability of oilfield service demands.

Equipment That Fits How Your Crew Works

A fuel truck with meter and hose reel speeds up every delivery and gives your team accurate, billable numbers on every drop. We equip petroleum tankers with:

Positive displacement meters for accurate delivery totals
Spring-driven or motorized hose reels, sized to your hose length and product
Bottom loading and vapour recovery for terminal compliance
Grounding and bonding reels for static safety during transfer
Cabinets and hose carriers to keep equipment organized and protected
