Manage Fuel Tanks

Goal: Register the fuel tanks on board and keep their configuration up to date, so that bunkering operations — refuelling, transfers, and consumption — can be tracked against each tank.

The **Bunkering** section in Stock & Supply is dedicated to fuel and liquid tanks. It works independently from the general inventory: tanks are not stock items and bunkering operations are not stock movements.

Before you start

  • You must have permission to manage bunkering. If you don’t see the Bunkering option, ask your fleet administrator.

Add a fuel tank

Open Bunkering — Tanks

  1. From the main navigation, open Stock & Supply.

  2. In the sub-navigation, select Bunkering.

  3. Select the Tanks tab (or section).

    The list shows all registered tanks with their name, category, and department.

Edit or delete a tank

  1. From the Tanks list, click on the tank row to open its detail.
  2. Update the fields as needed and click Save, or click Delete to remove the tank.
Deleting a tank also removes its history of operations. Only delete a tank if it has been permanently decommissioned and its records are no longer needed.
