Fleet operates | Orange River Tankers

Operational overview

We have more than 40 years of experience in this industry and we are very passionate about transport. We pride ourselves through high standards and quality service.

We operate a large fleet of tankers (Food grade, Fuel) and a number of tautliners superlink trailers that service our client base.

Our fuel tanker fleet operates on a dedicated contractual basis. Our tankers are custom-built with separate compartments and we provide specialized tautliner/flat-deck and tanker vehicles configured to meet specific customer requirements. Bench marking our company against European standards we introduced ADR certified tankers for the transportation of dangerous goods. ADR refers to the European agreement concerning the international carriage of Dangerous Goods.

Leveraging more than 40 years’ experience, ORT continues to set transit standards

All vehicles are fitted with real-time satellite tracking and in-cab cameras and we have cell phone communication with all vehicles. Our investment in Telematics enables our fleet managers to monitor driver behaviour and on-road risk, while maximizing vehicle productivity and utilization.

Orange River Tanker became the first South African transport company incorporating the new Iveco Stralis Hi-Way EEV (Enhanced Environmentally Friendly Vehicle). This technology is a stepping stone towards Euro-6 emission levels and a further initiative to reduce our carbon footprint.
