Tight management of fuel storage tanks is mission-critical when considering remote mines. Not only do mining assets consume immense volumes of fuel, the location of some mines also makes the very idea of running out of diesel the stuff of nightmares. Such operations cannot afford to halt all activities while waiting for the next fuel delivery.
