Ensuring safety in every action taken and every decision made is also a top priority for MOOV. Its bulk storage and distribution centres conduct comprehensive internal and external audits every quarter, while health and safety evaluations are performed at service stations three times per year.

MOOV offers the following services – onsite refuelling; fuel contracts; supply of Caltex lubricants; automatic tank-level management and oil analysis. With a large logistics fleet comprising 45 fuel tankers and an average delivery capacity of 40 000 litres, the company also caters for fuel emergencies, with same or next-day delivery across SA, dependent on the drop-off point and the nearest terminal.

In terms of bulk fuel solutions, MOOV offers petroleum delivery and storage of both ULP 93 and ULP 95. It also offers bulk delivery and storage of diesel 10 and 50, on-road and off-road, as well as diesel additives. The company also specialises in supplying commercial, residential and industrial LPG.

With regard to lubricants, MOOV provides a complete product offering that includes minerals, synthetics, food-grades, biodegradables and AdBlue. That’s in addition to oil analysis, equipment monitoring and lubrication surveys. MOOV’s fuel and lubricant management systems, meanwhile, consist of a combination of hardware and software products that enable access, security and control of product stores, while monitoring delivery and consumption. MOOV’s technical experts have the necessary expertise to recommend suitable products and assist with optimum equipment maintenance for reliability of operation.

SOME OF THE INDUSTRIES SERVICED BY MOOV
Transport and logistics
Moov’s on-site delivery options provide an efficient and economical solution to common inconveniences. Its team will drive to a client’s location and fuel their fleet – wherever they are. Whether a client runs a large, heavy-duty trucking operation or manages a smaller logistics fleet, MOOV’s team of energy experts can help them gain timely, convenient access to the fuel they require. And through real-time reporting, the MOOV team can also track a client’s fuel usage for accurate billing.

Agriculture
Planting, growing, feeding and harvesting all require different fuel and lubricant solutions, which MOOV is able to provide, from on-site fuel tank delivery to Caltex lubricants for maintenance. And because a farm’s fuel requirements fluctuate with the seasons, MOOV offers flexible service contracts to suit each agribusiness and its budget. MOOV offers remote tank-volume monitoring services, and when an agribusiness is low on fuel, MOOV will contact the client to schedule a delivery.

Mining
MOOV is equipped to cater to the African mining sector’s energy needs proficiently and effectively. Reducing a mine’s fuel costs starts with the right fuel storage systems. Whether a small mobile fuel storage tank or a large-scale bulk fuel solution is required, MOOV’s team of energy experts have the knowledge to help clients make the most of the fuel that keeps their mine running.

Its recommended range of self-bundled tanks is a portable, cost-effective and reliable fuel storage solution for the mining industry.

A mine’s operating environment also poses unique challenges in terms of energy requirements. In conditions where fluctuating temperatures, dust and dirt pose significant risks, it is important to have high performance lubrication to protect mining equipment.

Forestry
Responsible forestry requires attention to sustainable and effective practices that have the lowest environmental impact and yield the greatest social and economic benefit. MOOV supplies forestry businesses with a diverse range of Caltex lubricants for equipment, including chainsaws, harvesters, shredders, forestry tractors, skidders and so on.

The MOOV team can also refuel equipment while it is idle overnight, meaning production doesn’t have to stop for daytime refuelling. The company works with forestry businesses of all sizes to deliver efficient, professional on-site refuelling and bulk fuel supply services across a wide variety of projects.

Construction
From on-site fuel tank delivery to Caltex lubricants for maintenance, MOOV also caters for the construction sector. Its automatic tank level technology provides clients with real-time data – such as a price increase or decrease, cash flow or wet stock control – helping them manage the fuel and lubricant levels in tanks and mobile units.

Most importantly, the gauge gives MOOV ‘live’ access to clients’ tanks, enabling them to notify a client when their fuel or lubricant levels are running low. After all, good lubrication of construction equipment is vital to operations, as it ensures reduced maintenance, optimised operating costs and an extended lifetime for the equipment.

Marine
From platform and rig equipment to marine engines, MOOV delivers fuel and Caltex lubricants needed to keep maritime equipment well maintained. Lubrication failure is one of the most expensive and frequent causes of engine damage in the marine sector. MOOV offers a complete range of high-quality marine lubricants to help to protect engines and equipment, and enhance their efficiency.

In addition, MOOV’s recommended fuel options for the marine sector meet stringent ISO 8217 specifications, with barge inspection protocols for safe, effective deliveries to the port where the fuel is required.

Power
MOOV offers a diverse range of high-quality dedicated Caltex lubricants for power plants, whether hydraulic or turbine lubricants for coal-fired power plants are required, or special oils or greases for hydro and wind power plants.
