Base oil—often called the lifeblood of industrial machinery—is the core component of lubricants and greases, typically making up 67–90% of the final product’s mass. Whether refined from crude oil or produced synthetically, base oils act as the carrier for additives and directly impact the quality, performance, and longevity of lubricants.


From automotive engines and construction equipment to precision gearboxes, hydraulic systems, and wind turbines, base oil keeps industries running smoothly. Its chemical stability, viscosity consistency, and purity are crucial to protecting expensive machinery and extending service life.


Logistics Challenges: Purity and Cost Go Hand in Hand


Due to its high value and critical role, base oil must be shipped with care. Key challenges include:

● Preventing Contamination: Any foreign particles can degrade product quality and impact downstream applications.


● Maintaining Chemical Stability: Packaging must resist chemical reactions or swelling that could compromise the oil.


● Efficient Bulk Handling: Different viscosities require smooth loading and unloading without residue or product loss.


● Cost Control: With high volumes in global trade, choosing the right bulk transport method has a major impact on operational costs.


Why Flexitanks Are the Smart Choice for Base Oil


Flexitanks—food-grade, multi-layer liners fitted inside standard 20-foot containers—are revolutionizing how base oils move around the world. Here’s why:

● Higher Payload, Lower Costs


One flexitank can hold up to 24,000 liters, compared to around 16,000 liters with drums. More oil per container means fewer shipments, lower freight costs, and greater efficiency for high-volume routes.



● Maximum Product Protection


Blue Whale flexitanks use advanced multi-layer barrier films and a durable woven outer layer to protect the oil from leaks, evaporation, or contamination. Unlike drums or tanks that require cleaning, single-use flexitanks ensure every batch stays pure.



● Seamless Loading & Discharge


Base oil’s viscosity demands smooth flow. Flexitanks are designed for easy pump connections, allowing clean, efficient loading and unloading with minimal residue—saving time and reducing operational hassle.



● No Return Logistics


With flexitanks, there’s no need to manage cleaning or return trips for empty containers, cutting waste and operational costs.



● Sustainable and Compliant


Blue Whale flexitanks are made from recyclable materials, aligning with the industry’s push for greener supply chains and lower carbon footprints.
