Fuel theft detection made simple for mining operations

In mining operations, fuel is as valuable as the ore itself. Excavators, dumpers, and generators run for long hours in remote areas where supervision is limited – making them prime targets for unauthorized fuel usage or theft. Manual logs or delayed refueling records rarely match real consumption, causing heavy financial losses and operational distrust. With Trakzee’s fuel monitoring and theft detection system, mining companies can now track every drop of fuel in real time, ensuring transparency, accountability, and savings.

• Frequent fuel theft → Large on-site storage tanks and unsupervised equipment make it easy for fuel to be siphoned or misused.
  
• No real-time monitoring → Manual reporting delays prevent instant theft detection.
  
• Inefficient refueling logs → Discrepancies between supplied and consumed fuel go unnoticed.
  
• Unmonitored idle machinery → Machines left running unnecessarily increase hidden fuel losses.
  
• Lack of accountability → Without proper data, it’s difficult to identify when, where, and how much fuel was stolen.

Trakzee, integrated with precision fuel sensors, offers mining operators a complete view of on-site fuel activity – from refills to consumption to theft incidents – directly through the platform dashboard.

• Real-time fuel level tracking → Monitor every equipment’s tank level continuously to detect sudden drops.
  
• Instant theft alerts → Get immediate notifications when fuel is drained abnormally, even during machine operation.
  
• Refill verification → Automatically validate refueling events against actual fuel increases to eliminate fake entries.
  
• Consumption reports → Compare fuel usage across excavators, dumpers, and generators to identify efficiency gaps.
  
• Playback insights → Review past fuel activity on the map to trace suspicious movements or repeated theft patterns.
  
• Multi-site visibility → Monitor multiple mining sites from one centralized dashboard, ensuring transparency across operations.

• Up to 25% reduction in fuel theft within the first months of implementation.
  
• Instant detection of unauthorized fuel drain events, even during active shifts.
  
• Accurate consumption tracking for every asset and site.
  
• Lower operational losses and improved accountability among ground staff.
  
• Full transparency across refueling, storage, and usage operations.
