Some mobile bowsers and diesel tankers come fitted with a handy alarm

Cases of fuel being stolen from diesel bowsers in South Africa are on the upward trend. Perhaps the sharp increase in the price of fuel and other petroleum products is partly to blame. These criminals are ransacking unsecured building sites, farms, and depots looking to siphon fuel off diesel bowsers.

So, what to do to safeguard your diesel supply? Read on to learn 7 tried-and-true things you can do to prevent fuel theft from diesel bowsers in South Africa.

#1. Buy Top-Notch Diesel Tankers and Mobile Bowsers

Not all mobile bowsers and diesel tankers are created equal. That’s why you need to source a high-quality diesel bowser from a bespoke vendor in South Africa. You see, well-designed, constructed, and engineered mobile bowsers are safe, efficient, and durable as well as equipped with the latest in anti-theft technology and fixtures.

#2. Invest in Good Lighting

Even if your premise, building site, depot or farm is manned 24/7, you need to install top-grade lighting where diesel tankers are located. It’ll help your security personnel to keep an eye on them without much fuss.

#3. Bring in a Trained Dog

Our feline friends have an unmatched hearing (they can hear beyond 500m). Buy a trained dog to compliment your security apparatus and keep fuel thieves at bay.

#4. Invest in An Alarm

Some mobile bowsers and diesel tankers come fitted with a handy alarm. If not, have one installed by a professional to keep off criminals.

#5. Location is Paramount

If you want to deter diesel supply theft, you need to think carefully about your diesel tankers location. It should be concealed enough and in a secure place -- perhaps a card-access garage.

#6. Invest in a State of the Art Lock

When not in use, your mobile bowsers in Durban should be under tight lock and key.

#7. Invest in a State-of-the-Art CCTV

CCTV has always been a great means of deterring criminals. By having a modern CCTV installed where your mobile bowsers and diesel tankers stored or packed, you will keep off fuel thieves and protect your hard-earned money.

As a petrol station owner, it pays to keep up with global oil trends. After all, the rises and falls in crude oil and processed petroleum products do impact significantly on your business. While it is paramount to have top-notch fuel tanks, diesel pumps, fuel bowsers, dispenser pumps, and other petroleum products, it is also crucial to work with a petrol supplier in Durban who understands the ins and outs of the industry.

As 2017 comes to a dramatic close, we are going to walk you through a few hints on oil price forecast for 2018 and possibly beyond. Even before delve right into it; let’s look at a few facts about oil prices and petrol filling station business in the recent years.

• On 20 January last year (2016), the world’s crude oil price hit a 13-year low of $26.55 per barrel. By comparison, the cost stood at around $60 per barrel 6 months in June 2015, only 6 months earlier. Even more interesting, the figure staggered at around $100 per barrel as of June 2014.
• The oil prices have been changing daily due to swings in oil demand versus supply. That’s because the petroleum industry has shifted its tacts and ways of doing business.
• OPEC, which is the body overseeing quotas and output cuts on behalf of oil-producing countries, held an impromptu meeting on 30 November 2017. Accordingly, the oil price rose to a 30-month high.
• Shale oil producers in the US are beginning to up their production, with around 9.7 barrels per day in November.
• Petrol stations in South Africa are embracing technology and the latest in fuel tanks, dispensers pumps, and petroleum products primarily in Durban. More and more stations are installing high-quality diesel tanks in Durban.

 2018 Outlook 

• Shale oil producers will continue revving up their production, with 9.8 million barrels per day envisaged for 2018 and possible through 2020.
• The average oil price is estimated to be $57 per barrel in 2018, with low of $48 per barrel and high of $68 per barrel.
• OPEC will continue its production cuts through 2018. That means OPEC oil output will stand at around 32 million barrels per day.
• Talking 2020 and beyond, the global oil price will probably hit $200 per barrel with OPEC still in tight control.
