Maintaining Multiple Systems

It is not uncommon to see two to three separate

computers at an oil and gas terminal, each

performing a discrete business function,

such as load rack automation, tank gauging

or Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition

(SCADA), leading to increased costs and limited

performance.

A Single Integration Solution

FuelsManager provides a single solution for all

your business functions, allowing you to work

with one supplier, one help desk and maintain

one server for your entire facility, thereby

improving the efciency and performance of 

your operations.

Increase system costs dramatically to integrate

and maintain multiple computer systems and

software applications from different vendors

Difculty obtaining technical support or

coordinating support between multiple

suppliers

Limited reporting, as it is difcult compiling

information stored in many different databases

and data formats

Sacrice capabilities due to reliance on

spreadsheets, custom databases and paper-

based processes for many tasks at a terminal

facility

Operate out-dated or legacy systems, upgrading

one system often exposes incompatibilities

with the other systems

Reduce system costs by operating your

entire facility on a single server, simplifying

information technology security and system

maintenance

Immediate technical assistance from systems

analysts trained on the entire system, from the

gauge to the enterprise interfaces

Eliminate unnecessary paperwork, such as

spreadsheets, custom databases and forms by

integrating these functions into the system

Increase automation and data accessibility by

capturing and storing all transaction and

physical inventory data in a single database

and a common data format

Continued support with new features through

upgrades that are tested and implemented as a

single installation for the entire system

Proven Solutions

FuelsManager® Oil & Gas Terminal Automation

Edition was implemented at one of the largest and

most complicated renery terminal systems in

the United States. This 650 plus acre facility has a

capacity of 222,000 barrels per calendar day and

requires the integration of pipelines, barge loading,

rail rack loading, truck loading, pump and valve

control and movement control into one system

operating on a single application server. Varec

worked with on-site operations to commission the

FuelsManager system with zero down-time, while

replacing multiple discrete systems and manymanual paper and spreadsheet-based processes.

Loading Operations

Varec’s FuelsManager® Oil & Gas Terminal

Automation Edition and Driver Entry Terminal are

able to interface to entry and exit gates, pre-load

stations, weigh scales, load racks, BOL stations or

instrumentation, data collection and automation

equipment at these control points to enable multiple

loading conguration options.

Supports all Bulk Liquid Terminal Operations

FuelsManager supports truck, barge and rail racks at all

crude, rened product, LPG, chemical, fertilizer and asphalt

facilities. If you operate a single, manually-operated rack or

multiple facilities with advanced electronic control equipment,

FuelsManager Oil & Gas Terminal Automation Edition will improve

the efciency of your loading operations.

Interface existing equipment into one automated system using

FuelsManager’s exible, open communications. For example,

facility’s equipment status, alarms and events. For example,

during the loading process, all pump, valve and meter

indicators are updated in real-time and loading rack status can

be displayed clearly to your operators.

Control loading using information from FuelsManager’s order

management or inventory management systems. For example,

verify the order matches the product load request or stop

loading product based on inventory shortages.

Automatically verify product inventory against customer 

specications and print the required documentation, including

Certicates of Analysis, by integrating with existing quality

control systems.

Control and allocate product loads for every customer for a

particular period (day, week, month).

Flexible Order Management Options

FuelsManager can be operated as a stand-alone order

management system, set up as a web server to improve customer

service or integrated with external order systems.

Automatically update order status as drivers pick up products

against specic order numbers.

Improve customer service by allowing your customers to placeorders, check order status directly via the Internet and receive

immediate e-mail notications for order conrmation and

delivery.

Control information using a secure system that restricts users

(customers or employees) from adding, reviewing, modifying

or approving submitted orders for which they do not have

permissions. Further security levels can be utilized that limit

individuals to managing orders on behalf of specic companies

or for specic products.

Utilize event work ows to streamline your operations, for

example if a terminal operator enters a purchase request theappropriate purchase agent receives an e-mail to approve the

request and take action.

Reduce the amount of data drivers are required to enter into

a driver entry terminal or preset by automatically updating

information, such as customer or products.

Integrate with corporate order systems, such as SAP, to

automatically receive order information and transmit BOL data.

Enabling e-business

Varec has extensive experience in integrating FuelsManager with

ERP systems and third-party business partners, such as SAP

to enable e-business. As a SAP software partner, we maintain

a certied IS-TAS (Terminal Automation System) interface

to mySAP Oil & Gas - the ERP software standard for the oil

and gas industry. FuelsManager’s enterprise features provide

corporate-wide overviews and administration of all FuelsManager

installations, sharing data, such as transactions, inventories,

graphic displays and reports.

Automatically download master data, such as products, drivers,

trucks, trailers, orders and bulk shipment schedules from ERP

systems, such as SAP, and upload transaction information to

reduce operations costs and improve accuracy of data.

Receive e-commerce orders from your customers’ systems and

provide electronic order conrmation, delivery notications and

e-mail reports to reduce manual data entry errors and speed

up invoicing.

Automatically upload Bill of Lading and transaction information 

from each facility as the transaction occurs. New transactions

can be created or existing transactions can be edited online,

thus saving valuable time when performing daily accounting.

Utilize boolean logic to query multiple terms. For example, you

could create a report detailing premium gasoline transactions

over 1,000 gallons for a particular customer on the 24th of July

between 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. Queries can be then sorted for on

screen display or saved for use again.

Provide SCADA visualization to your enterprise level users. All

Real-Time Conguration of all System Parameters

Operators and administrators interact with FuelsManager Oil &

Gas via a standard Microsoft Windows® interface and a standard

browser-based user interface. Any conguration changes that

streamline your operations can be completed as your operators

work, without the need to shut down or restart the system.

Congure all tank information, such as process data, engineering

units, strap tables, product denitions, volume correctionmethods, alarms and tank geometry.

Manage a secure system with user and group security standards

that allow all users (employees and customers) access to data

relevant to their operations.

Use your business’ terminology for all elements of the user

interface. The ‘data dictionary’ allows the replacement of any

term, such as a company role, product denition or piece of 

equipment, with a user dened alias or language variant. This

powerful feature allows multiple facilities to use different terms

or languages; all data shared between the facilities is displayed

in the language or term selected at the local level.

Operate your system on standard Intel servers and workstations 

running Microsoft Windows and Windows Server. FuelsManager

also supports redundant server congurations using Microsoft

Clustering Services and utilizes a Microsoft SQL Server database

and Reporting Services. Web-based applications require

Microsoft Internet Information Server.

Choose from a wide range of communications possibilities 

when connecting equipment or sharing data throughout the

FuelsManager Oil & Gas system. Wireless communications

can be used, such as spread spectrum radio and WiFi, thateliminate expensive wiring at the terminal. In addition to

traditional preset and driver interfaces, transactions can be

captured from handheld computers, kiosks or browser.
