SPDS (Sealed Parcel Delivery System)

Sealed Parcel Delivery System (SPDS)

Alfons Haars Sealed Parcel Delivery System is recognised as the most secure solution for fuel or LPG deliveries.

Secure Fuel& LPG Transport Solution

We understand your urgent need to promptly respond to your customers when variances are reported. We know you do not always have direct access to your tankers onboard system, making prompt analysis of delivery data and unscheduled operations challenging.

We’re excited to announce Alfons Haar SPDS with integrated telemetry now provides you with instant access to all data as if you were standing at your tanker. This real-time access to every tanker in your feet is readily available in your pocket or desktop from anywhere in the world in a cost-effective solution.

As an indication of cost, should you lose just 500 litters (at current petroleum prices) per week, the AH SPDS solution pays for itself in just 14 weeks. Think of the saving over 52 weeks!

How Does Alfons Haar’s Sealed Parcel Delivery System (SPDS) Work?

The SPDS system begins by configuring sealed compartments within each tanker truck. Each compartment is treated as a unique vehicle, ensuring security and traceability at the compartment level. This design allows for the secure transportation of multiple types or grades of fuel without cross-contamination.

The system employs electronic tamper-evident seals, which are closely monitored by an electronic register. These seals integrated or retrofitted to manlid covers, bottom valves, and APIs, provide real-time status updates and record any unscheduled compartment access. Additionally, a Wet Leg Sensor at the API position ensures that each compartment drop is complete and that both the compartment and pipeline are dry, allowing the system to register an empty and fully delivered compartment.

Telemetry and GPS Tracking

Alfons Haar’s industry-leading proactive telemetry solution provides unparalleled monitoring of security seal status, fuel levels (with level gauges or meters), and other critical data points in real-time from anywhere in the world. In addition, GPS tracking offers exact location reporting and logging on all operations including the ability to geofence delivery locations.

This unsurpassed solution form Alfons Haar ensures absolute transparency, accountability and most importantly, real-time management of your entire fleet.

Real-Time Data Logging and Reporting

The solution offers comprehensive data management capabilities, including detailed logs of fuel quantities, delivery times, and seal status, all accessible through an intuitive online interface on desktop, tablet or cell phone. This includes real-time event & alarm notifications. AH SPDS provides enhanced security, integrity, accountability, operational efficiency, and user-friendly data management.

Process Workflow

The SPDS system’s workflow includes the following steps:

1. Loading: Fuel is loaded into the tanker’s compartments at the depot. Each compartment is filled with a specific type or grade of fuel and sealed with electronic tamper-evident seals. The seal status and numbers are recorded in the electronic delivery log.

2. Transportation: The tanker travels to the delivery location, with the automated monitoring system providing continuous updates on the tanker’s status. GPS integration allows for real-time tracking, ensuring the electronic seals remain intact throughout the journey.

3. Delivery: Upon arrival, the recipient verifies the status and numbers of the electronic seals against the delivery log. The seals are electronically opened, and the fuel is unloaded into the recipient’s storage tanks with each step timestamped and logged.

4. Realtime reporting: Via our integrated telemetry system, each of the steps above can be viewed remotely from your internet browser and alarms set for unauthorised activities and unauthorised deliveries.

Alfons Haar’s Sealed Parcel Delivery System (SPDS) represents a state-of-the-art solution for fuel & LPG tanker transportation. By leveraging advanced electronic sealing, real-time monitoring, and comprehensive data management, this integrated system ensures secure, accurate, and efficient fuel deliveries, meeting the highest standards of safety and regulatory compliance.
