A while back there was a post on how cheap methanol was wholesale and speculation that one had to purchase a bargeful to get that price. I contacted the importer that was listed in the post/link to see what the minimum amount was. I have gone the SVO route and so don't use methanol but I thought that it might prove useful to others that make BD.
It took a long time but here was the reply: Sorry for not getting back to you sooner, but I was away for the Holiday Season. Regarding your question, there is actually no "minimum" amount required for a methanol load. I've seen loads as small as 1000 gallons for a tank truck that holds up to 7500 gallons, and I know our Distributors handle methanol loads in totes and drums (55 gallons). Unfortunately, Methanex does not handle any of these volumes directly. So, I would need to direct you to our Distributors, who will address any further volume and pricing questions you might have. They are as follows: The Chemical Company: Robb Roach @ 401-423-3100 (Northeast area) Hydrite Chemical: Mike Balcerak @ 262-792-8707 (Midwest area) Webb Chemical: Brad Hilleary @ 231-733-2181 (Midwest area) Vopak USA, Inc.: Jeff Stoneking @ 513-714-5225 (Midwest area) Vitusa: Bill Lewis @ 704-364-3007 (Southeast & Gulf Coast area) Quadra Chemicals: Marty Collins @ 403-232-8130 (Pacific Northwest area) I hope this helps.
