Maritime operations are rarely static. Weather delays, port congestion, and changing itineraries are the reality of the business. However, while schedules may shift, the requirement for environmental compliance does not.
At aus40marine.com, we recognize that a “one-size-fits-all” delivery method doesn’t work for modern shipping. Whether your vessel is docked at a major terminal or waiting at anchorage, we have developed a dual-delivery infrastructure designed to solve the “last mile” problem of marine fluid logistics.
Here is how we tailor our delivery to your specific operational situation.
Scenario A: At the Dock (Bulk Truck Efficiency)

When your vessel is docked at a facility with shore access, speed and volume are usually the priorities. For these scenarios, we deploy our Bulk Truck Direct-to-Vessel service.
This method offers the most economical and efficient solution for large-volume requirements. Our fleet consists of specialized tank trucks designed specifically for AUS40 transport.
- High Capacity: Our trucks can carry up to 30,000 liters of AUS40, making them ideal for vessels with substantial storage capacity or those embarking on extended voyages.
- Precision: Each truck is equipped with calibrated meters that provide precise volume measurements, ensuring you receive exactly the quantity ordered.
- Safety: We utilize food-grade hoses with proper fittings to connect securely to your vessel, preventing any contamination during the high-speed transfer.
This streamlined process minimizes port time while ensuring your tanks are properly filled for the long haul.
Scenario B: At Anchor (Launch Boat & Totes)

Sometimes, direct truck access isn’t feasible. Your vessel might be at anchorage, in a remote location, or simply conducting a quick stop where berthing isn’t efficient.
For these situations, we offer specialized Tote and Launch Boat Delivery Services.
- Flexible Units: We supply AUS40 in industry-standard Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs)—typically 1,000-liter totes designed for marine transport. These are manageable units that crews can easily handle and store.
- Local Expertise: We partner with trusted local marine agencies who possess the maritime expertise and proper licensing to conduct safe offshore deliveries. These partners understand tidal conditions and harbor regulations, ensuring smooth operations even when you aren’t at the dock.
- Scalability: Whether you need a single tote for an immediate top-up or multiple units for extended operations, this system accommodates your needs without the complexity of large-scale infrastructure.
Safety Across the Board
Regardless of the delivery method, safety is our governing protocol.
For bulk deliveries, our operators conduct a pre-delivery briefing with your crew to review connection points and emergency shutdown procedures. For launch boat deliveries, totes are secured according to maritime cargo standards to ensure safe transport from shore to ship.
Conclusion: Logistics That Adapt to You
At aus40marine, we believe that your location shouldn’t limit your ability to remain compliant. We have built redundant supply chains and established agency partnerships to ensure that quality AUS40 reaches you efficiently—whether you are alongside or offshore.
