Fuel management enhanced for efficiency and safety in mining
Safe and cost-effective fuel management with load metering skids and inventory management solutions
Fuel management is essential in the mining industry. Fuel is a major cost driver, with mining vehicles, particularly trucks, consuming large volumes. Moreover, the consequences of an interruption in fuel availability can be costly, with remote sites at the greatest risk. Accurate monitoring of silos when filling is also vital to minimize dangers to personnel and the environment. Endress+Hauser fuel management technologies minimize risk and drive production efficiencies in mining operations.
350 litres
of diesel fuel are consumed on average by a mining truck per hour.
How we can help
Fuel is the lifeblood of a mine, however there is often potential for optimization in its management and control. Endress+Hauser offers technologies with multiple applications for improving fuel management and handling in mining operations.
Loading metering skids for optimal fuel loading from suppliers
Inventory management resources to ensure constant fuel supply
Silo overfill prevention solutions to protect personnel and the environment
Applications
Straightforward fuel loading
Fuel loading can be an uncertain process, exacerbated by the low levels of accuracy of mechanical flowmeters, often only 0.5%, and disagreements between fuel suppliers and mine operators are commonplace.
Our expertise in the field
Endress+Hauser offers multiple technologies to overcome ambiguities in fuel loading.
Integrate the Endress+Hauser Coriolis flowmeter with an accuracy of 0.1%
Leverage our unique density calibration to detect diluted or impure fuel
Improve fuel transfer accuracy to 0.25% with the Endress+Hauser loading metering skid
Once delivered to site, fuel needs to be stored, monitored and managed. Mine operators need seamless access to high-quality online and real time data in order to make optimal decisions in fuel management.
Thanks to our expertise in the mining and the Oil&Gas industry Endress+Hauser can offer dedicated solutions for your fuel management challenges. Plus, our offering consists of both system components and measuring instruments which makes integration easy and reliable.
