At WOLID International Limited, we offer full-service maritime logistics to transport crude edible oils. Such products need the special care of being handled during transit since they are sensitive, susceptible to contamination, and subject to stringent measures of quality control.
Exporting palm oil, soybean oil, or sunflower oil, or importing refined/unrefined oils for resale, we have the answer to ensure a secure, efficient, and compliant delivery.
We coordinate shipping with specially dedicated food-grade tankers, i.e., stainless steel or epoxy-coated tanks that are specifically designed to prevent oxidation, contamination, and spoilage.
These tankers meet all relevant international maritime standards of regulation for edible and vegetable oil shipping, e.g., those of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and Codex Alimentarius. For oils not yet sold requiring special temperature control or isolation from other bulk liquids, we make ships with the required onboard temperature adjustment and tank isolation features available.
Handling edible oils—especially oils for immediate human consumption—requires absolute adherence to food safety standards. WOLID offers absolute compliance with the best industry practice standards, which include:
For the case of raw vegetable oils, which would undergo additional industrial processing, our systems preserve the integrity of the product and prevent exposure to water, air, or foreign material that could interfere with the refining process.
WOLID coordinates berthing and cargo handling at Nigerian and other ports, working together with terminal managers, Customs, and regulatory authorities to facilitate timely and safe vessel turnaround. Our experienced shipping agents monitor loading and discharging to avoid loss of product, tank contamination, or mechanical failure during cargo handling.
We also liaise with freelance inspectors and laboratory testers as required, to examine samples of products and issue Certificates of Quality (COQ) or Certificates of Origin (COO) where trade agreements or domestic regulations require.
From the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) to Customs and the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR), we assist clients with all regulatory procedures and port documents. For vegetable oil tankers, which are often under special trade classes, our experts ensure smooth import permit processing, phytosanitary certificates, and transit clearances.
Our agents also procure Pre-Arrival Assessment Reports (PAAR) and SONCAP certificates where required, to avoid delays and the costly payment of demurrage charges.
Oils are vulnerable to temperature fluctuations during sea transport. WOLID undertakes real-time temperature monitoring of your cargo to maintain ideal carriage temperatures. For instance, crude palm oil is often transported at 32–40°C, not to freeze, while processed oils may require neutral thermal conditions.
We inform vessel Masters of voyage conditions and report to our customers daily, reducing guesswork and enhancing visibility through every stage of the shipment.
As a food producer, wholesaler, distributor, or farmer exporter, you can trust WOLID International Limited to manage your liquid bulk cargo with attention to cleanliness, compliance, and cost-effectiveness. Our tailored approach takes into account your product’s specific transport requirements—every drop arriving safely, legally, and in market condition.
