ENOC to pioneer fuel management enhancement in the UAE
The company will implement a new solution developed by its Horizon Terminals subsidiary to improve planning of fuel supplies.
Enoc Group has announced the implementation of an advanced digital solution for efficiently planning fuel supplies. The company developed the tool through its Horizon Terminals subsidiary and it consists of a system that bases its planning on several factors when analysing fuel supplies for the brand’s stations and commercial customers.
The PDI Logistics Cloud system studies stations’ current stocks, forecasted demand, time taken to load the road tanker, traffic levels on route to the site, and time taken to decant the product into the designated storage tank. It also offers optimisation of storage tank levels across the supply chain, reducing on-site stock levels where there are low sales volumes.
The announcement was made at the Water, Energy, Technology, and Environment Exhibition (WETEX) & Dubai Solar Show 2022. This makes Enoc the first fuel company in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to implement the latest version of this platform.
“In recent years, we have been investing heavily in optimising our operations and staying ahead of the technological advancements in the energy sector. As we continue to prioritise outstanding value for our customers and stakeholders, integrating the latest HTL Supply Management System within our business operations will further digitalise processes, allowing site personnel to focus on customers whilst the logistics division focuses on the supply and delivery of orders,” said Saif Humaid Al Falasi, Group CEO of Enoc.
The firm’s subsidiary, Horizon, is an energy solution provider for bulk oil storage. With a total of 10 terminals spread across the UAE, Morocco, Djibouti, Saudi Arabia and Singapore, its facilities are strategically located in key markets across the Middle East, Far East and Africa. Horizon manages 83 Prime movers, 67 tankers and 4 Rigid Tankers used for fuel distribution for retail, commercial, and aviation operations.
