The Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has launched an innovative Digital Retail Fuel Monitoring System developed by the National Petroleum Authority (NPA) in Accra.
The Fuel Monitoring System, which allows fuel in Oil Marketing Company (OMC) tanks across the country to be monitored by the NPA, will curb illicit activities such as unauthorised third-party deliveries, fake receipts and smuggling in the petroleum downstream sector. Under this system, any OMC that receives illegal fuel would be found out.
The Retail Fuel Monitoring System, with a command centre at the NPA s head office, will be able to monitor in real-time online, every fuel sales data from pumps, get station tank fuel levels data and fillings, handle overall wet-stock management and handle complete fuel management.
