Diesel Fuel Storage Tanks Farm Use
When operating in remote or challenging agricultural terrain, machinery needs to be built to withstand the conditions of the tough Australian climate. Such heavy-duty machinery needs reliable refuelling solutions to support their operations and this is best achieved with good quality diesel fuel storage tanks for farm use. Diesel fuel storage tanks allow for a range of flexible mobile refuelling alongside convenient bulk fuel storage.
Importance of Diesel Fuel Storage Tanks on farms
Diesel is an essential fuel for powering farming operations, fuelling tractors and other key pieces of equipment. It is as integral to keeping the farm running as the machinery itself. When choosing your fuel storage solutions for agricultural refuelling purposes, it is important to select a fuel tank that safely stores diesel as it is highly combustible. Investing in premium grade diesel fuel tanks helps ensure safety is maximised and that fuel is being correctly stored to ensure it does not leak and cause environmental damage. Good quality tanks also help ensure the quality of your diesel does not diminish which in turn could damage your machinery, equipment or performance.
With the costs of diesel fuel continuously rising, your fuel storage tank is an important consideration to maximise fuel efficiency and reduce the cost of refuelling. Bulk fuel storage tanks come with differing fuel management systems such as the SmartFill Management System which provides instant and simplified fuel tracking, with real-time, accurate, fuel data available remotely across numerous devices. Improved fuel tracking helps keep fuel costs lower and allows you to invest saved cashflow into other crucial areas of the business.
Advantages of Diesel Fuel Tanks for on Farm Use
Diesel fuel storage tanks improve operational efficiency through easy access to refuelling on-site, ensuring daily operations continue smoothly and reducing costly downtime in refuelling delays. Storing any combustible liquid brings with it additional risks, so it is vital to select a fuel storage tank that is manufactured to meet Australian Safety standards.
Advantages of on-site fuel storage with a reliable fuel tank include:
Additional Safety Measures: As diesel is a highly combustible liquid, there is possibility for it to be destructive across your property. In order to prevent this, it is important your fuel storage tank is contained in a fuel tank that prevents any spillage or leakage. Features such as self-bunding, lockable lids and overfill protection valves all contribute to having a safe level of fuel maintained.
Time Saved on Refuelling: On-site fuel storage permits easier mobile refuelling allowing for increased productivity on agricultural activities.
Maintained Fuel Quality: Storing fuel in correct conditions within appropriate temperatures and light conditions, ensures you are maintaining fuel in peak condition maximising its efficiency. This ensures your machinery is additionally operating at its best capacity, as the fuel it is using is not of corrosive quality.

I purchased a Poly Tank Fuel Trailer from DUROTANK in April 2018. DUROTANK builds one of the best fuel trailers I have ever used. The build quality, engineering and attention to detail is unreal. The fuel trailer is rock solid, it tracks extremely well full of fuel at 100km/hr and its road worthy. All of the fittings are hoses are high quality hydraulic hose and crimped fittings so there are no leaks. The Durotank team is very easy to deal with and more than happy to help with any enquiries. The staff are friendly and it is a pleasure to do business with them. I’d buy another one in a heartbeat, that’s for sure

The Duro Cubes are going extremely well! My guys are very happy with them. Having them already saved us on oil transport on at least 2 occasions so far and has also allowed us to restructure our oil work days and use out of hours oil deliveries to make more efficient use of the time on site.
