Gas Pro’s Automated Tank Monitoring (ATM) system is a powerful tool for preventing loss and theft at gas stations. It provides real-time insights and detailed tracking that help station owners and managers detect, prevent, and respond to potential problems efficiently. Here’s how:

1. Detecting Abnormal Fuel Loss

• Real-Time Monitoring: Gas Pro continuously measures fuel levels in the tanks. If the system detects a sudden or unexplained drop in fuel that doesn’t correspond to sales, it sends an alert immediately.
• Leakage or Theft Identification: By analyzing the timing and nature of the loss, station managers can identify whether it’s due to a leak, theft, or an operational issue.
  • Example: If a tank loses 500 liters overnight when the station is closed, it may indicate theft or siphoning, prompting an investigation.

2. Preventing Employee Theft

• Accountability Through Data: Gas Pro tracks fuel dispensed versus sales recorded, ensuring that every liter of fuel is accounted for. Discrepancies between sales data and tank levels can highlight potential employee theft.
• Shift Monitoring: With detailed data on fuel usage during specific times, managers can monitor employee activity during their shifts.
  • Example: An employee who repeatedly reports fuel sales lower than the dispensed amount can be identified and addressed.

3. Identifying Fuel Delivery Fraud

• Verification of Fuel Deliveries: Gas Pro can track tank levels before and after a fuel delivery to ensure the station receives the exact amount of fuel ordered.
• Spotting Short Deliveries: Some delivery drivers may attempt to offload less fuel than invoiced. Gas Pro ensures that any discrepancy between the ordered and delivered fuel is immediately evident.
  • Example: A supplier delivers 10,000 liters but only 9,500 liters show up in the tank. The system alerts the manager, preventing financial losses.
