Is it feasible to transport liquid ammonia over long distances to loading platforms for loading?

As the title indicates, due to space constraints in the plant, it is planned to transport liquid ammonia over a long distance for loading; that is, the distance from the liquid ammonia tank to the loading platform is greater than 3000 meters, and loading is to be carried out using a loading pump. Is this solution feasible? Are there any special considerations when selecting a pump if possible?
How do you control it from 3 kilometers away?
Load it directly with a pump; you need to install a vapor recovery pipeline. Also, are all the 3000-meter tests conducted within the factory premises? If it is outside the facility, a safety assessment is required, and implementation can only take place after approval from the safety supervision agency.
I’ve never used it over such a long distance; liquid ammonia is a hazardous material, so safety must be taken into account
