Deep Draft Jetty Operations

Gateway to Global Energy Trade

Deep draft jetty operations are a cornerstone of Tiara Xcel LLC’s value proposition, enabling us to handle vessels of significant size and capacity, including Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs). With draft depths of up to 25 meters, operated in partnership with the Port of Nigeria, our jetties are designed to facilitate seamless global trade flows for crude oil, refined products, and specialty petroleum cargoes.

The advantage of such deep draft capabilities lies in their ability to reduce logistical bottlenecks. By accommodating large carriers directly, we help clients minimize additional transshipment needs, reduce freight costs, and improve turnaround times. This makes Tiara Xcel LLC not just a storage partner, but a strategic enabler of efficient global supply chains.

Moreover, our jetties are strategically located to allow easy integration with inland waterways, pipelines, and intermodal logistics. This connectivity ensures that every cargo discharged or loaded can reach its destination quickly, reliably, and at optimal cost.

World-Class Infrastructure and Technology

The infrastructure supporting our deep draft jetty operations is among the most advanced in the region. Each jetty is equipped with state-of-the-art loading arms, vapor recovery systems, and high-capacity pipelines that enable the safe and efficient transfer of hydrocarbons. These assets are designed for both speed and precision, minimizing downtime while safeguarding the integrity of the products handled.

To ensure accuracy and reliability, our operations are monitored through advanced SCADA systems integrated with our Terminal Automation System (Qino TAS). This enables us to track flow rates, pressures, and product movement in real-time, while providing clients with full visibility of their cargo operations.

Additionally, our jetties are designed with product segregation capabilities, meaning we can handle multiple grades of crude oil, fuel oil, and refined products simultaneously without risk of cross-contamination. This makes Tiara Xcel LLC an ideal partner for clients with diverse cargo portfolios and complex scheduling needs

Safety, Compliance, and Environmental Stewardship

Operating at deep draft jetties comes with unique challenges, particularly in managing safety, environmental, and regulatory requirements. At Tiara Xcel LLC, these challenges are addressed through robust QHSSE protocols that guide every operation. Our compliance with ISO 45001:2018, ISO 9001:2015, and ISO 14001:2015 standards ensures that safety and sustainability are embedded in every aspect of jetty operations.

Environmental stewardship is a key focus area, particularly when dealing with large crude carriers. We have stringent spill-prevention systems, emergency response plans, and environmental monitoring in place to ensure that marine ecosystems are protected. Vapor recovery units and energy-efficient pumping systems further contribute to reducing emissions and minimizing environmental impact.

Safety is reinforced through strict berth management procedures, tug coordination, and regular training for pilots and staff. Our team is empowered to halt operations if unsafe conditions are observed, ensuring that both personnel and assets remain protected.

How We Operate and Assist Clients

At Tiara Xcel LLC, our deep draft jetty operations are designed with the client’s logistics in mind. From the initial nomination of a vessel to its berthing, discharge, or loading, our operations team works closely with shipping agents, captains, and port authorities to coordinate a seamless process. Every detail, from berth allocation to line flushing and cargo documentation, is managed with precision.

We assist our clients by providing real-time updates throughout the jetty operation, ensuring full visibility and confidence in cargo movement. Our flexible scheduling allows us to accommodate urgent requests, unexpected delays, or last-minute product blending needs, providing clients with the agility they require in today’s fast-paced trading environment.

Ultimately, our deep draft jetty operations empower clients to trade at scale, reduce costs, and access global markets with ease.
