J&J Truck Bodies & Trailers, a division of Somerset Welding & Steel, announced the company is manufacturing 130-barrel (BBL) pressure vacuum tank trailers in addition to J&J's 110-BBL mounted tanker.

The J&J DynaHauler PVT 130-BBL tank trailer is engineered to withstand the rigorous demands of gas and oilfield service work. From the full penetration submerged arc welds to the Cor-Ten suspension subframe, the J&J 130-BBL tank trailer is a sound investment for oil and gas field service operations in the Marcellus and Utica shale — and beyond.

Customers working in oil and gas field service showed interest in a tanker option with increased hauling capacity and over-the-road capability. Designers then developed a 130-BBL tank trailer with superior construction and excellent performance. The company invested in equipment and automation that allows the firm to efficiently produce quality tank trailers in high volume.

The first J&J tank trailers were delivered to Hill International Trucks LLC, a vocational truck dealer in Eighty-Four PA.

The standard J&J tank trailer features include 1/4-inch steel heads, shell, and anti-surge baffles. It is equipped with a Fruitland RCF 500 vacuum pump, LED lighting, three manways, a cold-weather sump package, and Shermin Williams Genesis paint. Options include a full-length catwalk, aluminum hose trays, interior tank liner, toolboxes, and on-board scales. Wetlines available through J&J Truck Equipment also can be installed.
