The Challenge

The Challenge Bulk Fuel Sites Face Today

Fuel stored on-site is one of the most vulnerable and least controlled assets in your operation. Meanwhile, without accurate monitoring and control, losses occur through theft, mismanagement and inaccurate reporting — often going undetected until it hits your bottom line.

In short: your biggest fuel risk may not be on the road. It is in your storage tank.

For example, dispensing nobody signs off on
Similarly, tank levels checked by dipstick and guesswork
In addition, manual logs that never quite reconcile
Theft at unmanned and remote sites after hours

FAQ

Bulk Fuel Bowser Management: FAQs

What is bulk fuel bowser management?
It is a system that monitors stored diesel levels, tracks every litre dispensed and prevents fuel loss. In essence, it puts your storage tanks under the same discipline as your bank account.
How is this different from truck fuel monitoring?
Truck fuel monitoring tracks fuel usage inside vehicles, whereas bulk bowser management controls the fuel stored in tanks and dispensing systems. Consequently, most operators run both — Digit D-Fuel in the trucks and Digit D-Bulk at the depot.
Can it monitor multiple sites?
Yes. You manage every location from one DigitWeb dashboard. As a result, multi-site operators see all tanks, all dispensing and all alerts in a single view.
Does it integrate with accounting systems?
Yes — it integrates with Sage, SAP, Pastel and other ERP systems. Therefore, fuel data flows straight into your existing financial reporting.
What tank sizes can be monitored?
From 1 000 L up to 250 000 L tanks. In other words, everything from a farm bowser to a full commercial fuel depot.

Right Fit

Who Bulk Fuel Management Is For

Bulk fuel bowser management pays for itself fastest where diesel is stored on-site and dispensed daily. In particular, operations with remote tanks, multiple sites or unmanned dispensing see measurable returns within the first quarter.

However, scale is not the barrier people expect: from a single 1 000 L farm bowser to a 250 000 L depot network, the same DigitWeb platform scales with you.

  • First of all, mining and resource operations
  • Construction and infrastructure sites
  • Logistics depots and yards
  • Likewise, agricultural and farming operations
  • Fuel depots and remote facilities
  • Finally, unmanned or high-risk sites
