Telemetry solution for petrol stations

 

citerne

  • Oil Link™ is a robust, autonomous system for remote monitoring of petrol-station tanks via the internet.
  • The system is easily installed on all types of tanks at a petrol station and works reliably and accurately in any location.
  • Oil Link™ can also monitor other parameters, such as product temperature.

Advantages

  • Reduction of logistics costs by at least 20%, thanks to optimal delivery schedules
  • Elimination of dry runs and emergency deliveries
  • Reduction of the CO2 footprint thanks to the reduction of deliveries
  • Improved purchase planning
  • Detailed visualization of stations’ sales


  • A telemetry system is installed in every man-hole
  • Tank-level measurements are regularly sent wirelessly to a single hub. This hub, via the GSM network, transmits the data to the cloud, which automatically processes the data.
  • Fuel companies and/or their haulers automatically get tank levels into their planning tools. Deliveries are then planned automatically. They can even view and analyze the data directly in the user-friendly Oil Link™ web portal, from their office or on the road. The station managers can also get access to view their sales on their smartphone.
  • Thanks to the optimization of deliveries based on live data, fuel merchants and/or their haulers lower their logistics cost by more than 20% without the risk of running dry.

 

Oil Link™ web portal

The user-friendly Oil Link™ web portal is the interface between the telemetry units and your logistic solution. It allows you to easily access, view, analyze and export tank-level data via the internet.

Oil Link™ can also initiate alarms, if a low or high tank level is reached, allowing you to take immediate action.

The Mobile version of Oil Link™ is a very practical way to quickly and simply view your stock and consumption, while on the go. It is compatible with any mobile phones and tablet browsers.
