Our proposed solution

Equip a tanker with an Eagleview display and controller to help operators while delivering petroleum products to industrial, residential and commercial customers.

Objectives

  • Reduce errors
    • Help the operator accomplish tasks from a distance
    • Ensure quicker and safer delivery
  • Eliminate back and forth between the tanker and fill site
    • Allow for quick reactions in case of emergency or equipment failure
  • Complete access to the state of the system, even when the truck is out of view

Spillages and overflows can cost tens, or even hundreds of thousands of dollars in decontamination costs

Confirmed results

  • Can see and control amounts away from the truck, regardless of the delivery point location
    • Can check delivery factors at any time (amount delivered, product delivered, flow, volume)
  • Assists the operator while s/he accomplishes tasks

Mr. Giguère is a precursor who is always open to change and collaborations.

“Absolutely, […] I can’t ask for anything better than working with people helping us in our industry”. 

A delivery worker can carry out 10 to 30 deliveries per day, 5 days per work. That’s approximately 5,000 deliveries per year.

  • Control
    • Constant line of communication with the truck
    • Constantly monitor activities
    • Critical information available at all times
  • Safety
    • Warnings and alerts in real time
    • Immediate reaction in case of problems
