Minimize transportation cost
Gaffney, Cline & Associates transportation analysis service enables you to minimize cost when moving crude oil, gas, or refined products. Which is better pipeline or tanker? Pipeline or truck? We’ll analyze the technical and economic feasibility of existing pipeline capacity versus pipeline capital investment.
For moving crude oil by tanker, we consider the capital and operating cost of commissioning a new-build tanker versus time charter rates. What is the strategic risk of any transportation choice, focusing on potential supply-to-market disruption?
Looking at gas development projects, we determine the economic feasibility of moving gas via pipeline or as LNG or CNG.
For refined products, we analyze shipment via single- or multiproduct pipelines or tanker. We analyze prospects for clean and dirty tanker rates, which determine economic feasibility for particular market sales.
