Fuel Management for Mining Fleets in Indonesia

Mining fleets in Indonesia operate in remote pits, uneven haul roads, and long work cycles. Heavy trucks and excavators run long engine hours, making fuel the highest operating cost for mining companies. With multiple pits and large working areas, operators need a reliable way to monitor fuel usage, refueling patterns, and consumption efficiency.

• No clear visibility into fuel consumption
  Managers cannot track fuel used per shift, per route, or per engine hour.
• Manual refuel logging
  Refueling at on-site bowsers is recorded on paper, causing mismatch with actual usage.
• High idle time at pits and crushers
  Vehicles idle during loading/unloading and queueing, increasing fuel burn.
• Inconsistent fuel reporting across sites
  Different pits use different tracking methods, making it hard to compare performance.
• Difficulty analysing route-wise fuel efficiency
  Gradients, distance, and pit layout affect fuel usage but remain unmeasured.

• Real-Time Fuel Monitoring
  Track fuel levels, consumption, and usage trends for every mining vehicle.
• Digital Refueling Records
  Each refuel event is logged automatically with before/after tank levels and location.
• Fuel-per-Engine-Hour Metrics
  Measure fuel usage based on engine hours — the correct benchmark for mining fleets.
• Idle Fuel Analysis
  Identify idling at pits, crushers, waiting points, and shift-change areas.
• Fuel consumption reports
  Generate detailed reports of fuel usage across trips, shifts, and operational cycles. 
• Unified Multi-Site Dashboard
  View standard fuel KPIs across all mining locations in Indonesia.

• 8–15% reduction in total fuel consumption
  Better visibility results in more efficient operations.
• Lower idle-related fuel burn
  Identifying pit/crusher idle zones helps reduce non-productive engine running.
• Accurate tracking of fuel usage vs refueling
  Each refuel event matches real consumption.
• Consistent reporting across all sites
  Standardizing fuel KPIs improves decision-making.
• Improved cost-per-ton performance
  Optimized fuel usage improves hauling efficiency.
• Better maintenance planning
  Reduced idling and smoother operation protect engine life.
