ENOC extends RFID technology services across DP World’s Terminals 2 and 3

ENOC Group has extended its RFID-based technology to fuel terminals two and three of DP World to serve its fleet of vehicles. The expansion of the service follows the successful implementation of RFID technology at Terminal 1, that has helped DP World in monitoring diesel fuel consumption, increase operational efficiency and manage scheduled vehicle maintenance.

DUBAI, (Pakistan Point News - 18th Dec, 2018) ENOC Group has extended its RFID-based technology to fuel terminals two and three of DP World to serve its fleet of vehicles. The expansion of the service follows the successful implementation of RFID technology at Terminal 1, that has helped DP World in monitoring diesel fuel consumption, increase operational efficiency and manage scheduled vehicle maintenance.

More than 1,500 vehicles have been installed with RFID across the three terminals. The RFID system will reduce fuelling time for DP World’s fleet and enhance the efficiency of operations at DP World’s container terminals.

Saif Humaid Al Falasi, Group CEO of ENOC, said, "As a key energy player in the country, we continuously strive to provide our partners with innovative technologies that will enhance their operational efficiency. Our longstanding collaboration with DP World is a testament to our ability to not only contribute towards elevating the UAE’s critical infrastructure projects, but demonstrates the Group’s track record in achieving operational excellence."

The successful integration has enabled a more efficient process for fuel management, as RFID technology has sped up the refuelling process for each truck by 50 percent and eliminated manual data entry for all fuel transactions by 90 percent, enhancing the operational efficiency of commercial fleets. The integration has also contributed to improvement in monitoring, consumption control, and identifying and authorising fuel dispensing for registered vehicles.

Mohammed Al Muallem, CEO and Managing Director of DP World, UAE Region, said, "At DP World, we are focused on strengthening the existing supply chain and technology will be the driving force for that. Investing in cutting-edge solutions has been a fundamental part of our growth story, from our semi-autonomous Terminal 3 at Jebel Ali Port to the integration of smart technologies such as blockchain, IoT, and cloud computing across our portfolio. Through this, we are creating an intelligent logistics network that will span the MENA region and Indian subcontinent and lead to increases in operational efficiency to the benefit of our customers.

"The implementation of ENOC’s RFID technology in fuel terminals 2 and 3 at our flagship Jebel Ali Port will serve to enhance their world-class productivity and efficiency and allow us to meet future demand ahead of time. ENOC is an industry-leading solutions provider, and we are proud to work with them to help further develop the UAE’s energy logistics sector and solidify its position as the leading trade hub of the GCC."

The RFID system is currently installed at DP World’s terminals 1, 2 and 3. The use of RFID has also enabled DP World to gather key data to help them optimise performance – such as distance driven, engine cycles, vehicle utilisation, fuel consumption and other operational statistics.
