Getting the right combination of fuel storage and distribution options can help you dramatically reduce consumption by changing how and where your vehicles refuel.
With downtime for machine maintenance in the mining sector costing as much as $550,000 per vehicle per year, keeping your fuel fresh makes sense for your vehicles and for your bottom line.
Talking to the experts at Nqpetro about your fuel storage needs can save you time and money. We know the mining industry, and our technicians can design the right fuel storage solutions to suit your needs, while avoiding common pitfalls and ensuring you operate in full compliance with Australian environmental and safety standards.

One of your biggest expenses is fuel. Keeping your fuel fresh makes sense for your vehicles and for your bottom line.
Nqpetro provides a complete installation, maintenance and in house fuel metering calibration service for mining and industrial operations across Australia.
We know that the mining and resources sector is a time critical environment, and one where keeping your equipment well-maintained and properly calibrated and monitoring fuel use can save you huge amounts. The sector is also known for their BIG FUEL FARM STORAGE facilities which also means BIG FLOW RATES through their metering equipment. Nqpetro have a vast range of equipment to service these range of flow meters. From 5 litres per minute through to 2000 litres per minute.
Our regular maintenance service helps keep tanks, caps, seals and spill boxes maintained to stop debris entering underground or above ground fuel storage tanks. Nqpetro’s experts can also advise you on the best fuel management systems to help you monitor tank levels and track consumption down to each individual machine. This means you can spot potential issues early, before critical failures lead to a loss in production capacity. Not only that, but keeping your fuel transfer systems well maintained can save time on refuelling, minimising vehicle downtime.
Losing fuel through leaks or theft can be a double blow in the resources sector. Keeping tight control over your fuel use is not only in your interests for safety and environmental reasons, but helps make claiming fuel tax credits easy.
