Blackburn business doubles council's fuel storage capacity

Blackburn commercial fuelling specialist Pennine Pump & Tank has undertaken a project to upgrade the refuelling facilities at Rochdale Borough Council.

The company's most recent clients include major players such as Farmfoods, Morrisons, United Utilities, County Councils, Balfour Beatty and EM Highways.

Already benefiting from having their own onsite fuelling facilities, Rochdale Council realised the potential savings to be made from increasing their fuel storage capabilities further. After evaluating the site, Pennine Pump & Tank supplied and installed a custom designed steel 40,000 litre fuel storage package tank complete with roller shutter door and fuel pump.

By doubling the fuel storage capacity at Heywood, Pennine Pump & Tank could potentially save Rochdale Borough Council a further £40,000. Future work at Rochdale Borough Council is set to include a new 5,000 litre Adblue package tank, replacing the 200 litre drums currently in use and will also be linked into the existing fuel management system.
