What are some good ways to address dripping and seepage from the loading arm on refined oil products?

I want to design an oil receiving tank. How should this tank be positioned on the dip pipe in a proper manner?
We used a long wire to hang it on the crane pipe handle (the handle is on the straightest section of the pipe)
Are there any photos, or do you use springs?
Hang the oil collection bucket on the railing of the platform.
The ball valve can be replaced in case of dripping from the loading port； Joint leakage requires joint replacement ； For heavy oil products, a temporary barrel can be used.
They actually use wire to hang a 1L container... We use anti-static ropes to hang the oil tank, and the dip pipe comes with a hook built into it.
Upstairs, I didn’t say that my canned products are also refined oil products. If the wire is too thin, I still think it’s not safe enough; and you still want to use a rope instead
The flexible hose is equipped with exhaust valves; these should be opened after the operation to allow exhaust and drainage of oil. The oil in the hose can be almost completely drained, and a bucket can be used when it is lifted to the oil platform
No small oil collection bucket needs to be hung under the flexible hose
Lower garment modification can solve the problem fundamentally!
Our warehouse does the same thing, but the problem is that it’s impossible to empty the flexible hose completely; there’s still material left attached to the walls of the hose, which then drips down. When the hose is moved, the vibrations can cause that attached material to fall off as well. Although the amount isn’t large, it’s still not good if it drops onto the floor or onto equipment such as flow meters and valves. It produces an unpleasant odor and can also damage the equipment. Many oil depots use a hook attached to the hose; when lifting the hose, a small bucket is hung on it. This method works as well. There is now a new type of hose that features a component at its bottom – when there is no flow, the inner liner retracts, and the component at the bottom seals the hose, preventing oil from leaking out. Last time, some manufacturers came to our place to introduce this
