This paper discusses how digital monitoring technologies can be used to improve the safety, reliability and regulatory compliance of hazardous-materials transport based on a case study of Air Liquide one of the largest producers and distributors of liquefied gases in the world. Based on secondary data in the form of corporate reports, industry magazines and scholarly sources, the paper examines the impact of IoT-enabled sensor-networks, SCADA-integrated filling processes, the GPS and telematics systems, predictive-maintenance models and centralized digital dashboard on the functioning of the operations. The results show that digitalization has a significant positive impact on the accuracy of incident-detection, minimization of the risk of mechanical failures, an increase in the quality of documentation traceability and compliance with ADR and ISO-based safety systems. Comparative evaluation of before and after digitalization reveals that there is an objective increase in fleet utilization, anomaly-prevention abilities and compliance audit results. Such cross-industry findings as Linde, Air Products and Praxair confirm that such technologies have uniform advantages in the entire industry-gas market globally. The authors conclude that digital monitoring is an enabler of structure of proactive safety management in liquefied-gas logistics, transforming the sphere of reactive practices based on inspections into predictive, data-driven operational management. Recommendations include further investment in digital infrastructure, the improvement of cybersecurity and the introduction of more general regulatory assistance to the electronic traceability systems.
