Fuel uplifting encompasses the secure removal of excessive or unwanted fuel, oil, or lubricants by either transferring it to a new tank or completely removing it from the site. The procedure requires expertise to prevent spills or pollution, which may result in legal liabilities.
At 123 Oil, we offer a fully registered fuel uplift service, aiding businesses across the UK to handle their fuel effectively and under environmental protection rules. Whether you need to transfer fuel from tank to tank, move it between sites, or dispose of it altogether, we guarantee a legally and environmentally compliant solution.
Call 0775 991 4162 / 0154 332 4016 today to find out how we can help streamline your fuel management.
Fuel uplifting has been instrumental in guaranteeing environmental protection and conforming to legislative regulations. Fuels such as diesel have a limited lifespan of 6-12 months, and if not treated correctly and quickly, they may degrade, resulting in contamination and debris accumulation. Secure fuel transport is vital to avoid spills or leaks that can damage the environment. Accurate fuel management is, therefore, not only a responsibility but is also essential for preventing legal issues.Â
At 123 Oil, we are available 24/7 to support you with professional fuel-uplifting services. You can contact us anytime for trustworthy help.
Stringent environmental and safety guidelines regulate the storage and management of fuels. Failing to handle stored fuel correctly can result in spills, contamination, and infiltration to water bodies, leading to regulatory penalties and expensive clean-up operations.
If you have more than 1,000 litres of fuel that you no longer require, our crew can come to your site, uplift it from your tank, and guarantee to handle it in an environmentally friendly way.
Leaving fuel stagnant and unused for long periods can result in contamination and tank corrosion, potentially compromising their integrity. Over time, degraded fuel might become unusable, increasing the risk of leaks and environmental hazards.
At 123 Oil, we always recommend our fuel polishing service first, as it helps restore fuel quality and make it appropriate for reuse before refilling your tank. This process removes water, sludge, and impurities, ensuring your fuel remains clean and effective. In some cases, if your unwanted fuel is still in a reusable condition, we may even be able to buy it from you. However, fuel uplifting might be essential if the fuel is extremely contaminated. In such circumstances, we can safely remove the degraded fuel and supply a fresh batch to keep your operations running smoothly.
Our objective is to reduce waste and disruption while guaranteeing you have a dependable fuel supply. Contact 123 Oil for the best fuel uplifting service in the UK.
We provide uplift services for various fuels, such as:
We suggest a preventative maintenance plan to prevent the need for fuel uplifting. Our specialists can test, monitor, and polish your fuel on a fixed-price, annual basis to retain fuel quality and avoid expensive replacements. Routine maintenance not only increases the lifespan of your fuel but also keeps your operations functioning properly.
As part of our responsibility to sustainability, we offer alternatives like HVO fuel, a fully renewable diesel substitute that decreases net CO2 emissions by up to 90%. If you want to transition to a cleaner fuel source, our crew will remove your current fuel, clean your storage tank, and refill it with HVO to help you fulfill your sustainability objectives.
At 123 Oil, we follow a structured approach to fuel uplifting. We begin with a detailed site survey and evaluation to assess the condition and value of your fuel and determine the best fuel recovery method. Next, we create a phased plan for safe and efficient removal with risk and environmental assessments. The fuel is extracted, assessed for suitability, and, if appropriate, released to the market, with payment promptly arranged. The residue is effectively removed, and tanks are either decommissioned or cleared entirely. For a proactive solution, we recommend our regular fuel management services to keep your fuel in top condition.
123 Oil provides professional fuel-uplifting services for a broad spectrum of fuels and oils, including red diesel, white diesel, kerosene, industrial heating oil, coolants, transformer oils, and more. We understand the importance of maintaining a clean fuel supply without disrupting your ongoing operations. The increasing presence of biodegradable elements in fuels increases the risk of microbial contamination and repolymerisation. Our services help mitigate these risks, ensuring your fuel remains uncontaminated and safe.
A trustworthy fuel-uplifting solution is crucial for retaining smooth operations, whether at residence or in the office. At 123 Oil, our team is available 24/7 to tackle your fuel needs, providing quick and dependable fuel-uplifting services all over the UK, even during emergencies or high-demand periods.
Let 123 Oil take the stress out of fuel management!
We handle a variety of fuels, including:
Strict environmental and safety regulations govern fuel storage. Fuel spills can harm the environment and lead to legal penalties. Using a fuel uplift service ensures compliance and protects your site.
After a while, stagnant fuel becomes contaminated by microbes, creating toxic sludge known as the diesel bug. This sludge corrodes tanks and increases the risk of leaks or spills.
Prevent issues with regular maintenance. 123 Oil offers fixed-price plans to test, monitor, and polish your fuel, keeping it clean and safe while extending your system’s life.
If your fuel is too contaminated, we will safely remove it, degas your tank, and decommission it as needed. Call 0775 991 4162/0154 332 4016 to discuss your options.
Yes! 123 Oil offers fuel management services catering to small and large fleets, guaranteeing streamlined and effective operations.
Routine fuel polishing eliminates impurities, enhancing fuel quality. This improves the effectiveness and life span of your machinery, saving you money in the long run.
A contaminated fuel does not always need a full uplift and replacement. At 123 Oil, we offer cost-efficient alternatives. If the contaminant levels are moderate, your fuel can be polished and treated with the required additives or biocides. This process restores the quality of the fuel, making it a more economical, less wasteful, and more eco-friendly solution than outright replacement. We offer effective and secure fuel uplift services for heavily contaminated fuel, guaranteeing your system is back to optimum performance.
Leaving fuel stagnant for extended periods may result in contamination and the formation of harmful sludge caused by microbes and fungi, usually called the diesel bug. This toxic buildup can corrode your tank and even result in hazardous spills. At 123 Oil, we help you avoid these issues with our professional fuel uplift services and proactive fuel management solutions. Count on us to keep your stored fuel in ideal condition while guaranteeing your equipment adheres to safety guidelines.
Fuel uplifting and fuel polishing are both key to handling your fuel, but they serve distinct roles. Fuel uplifting is the procedure of safely removing or transferring contaminated or unwanted fuels, oils, or lubricants – essentially, it is about disposing of no longer required fuel. Fuel polishing, on the contrary, is the mechanical procedure of filtering stored fuel through specialised equipment to remove contaminants, helping to restore the fuel’s quality. While uplifting removes the contaminated or unwanted fuel, polishing helps get the remaining fuel working like new again, saving you from expensive fuel replacement or treatment.
Our nationwide fuel supply service means that 123 Oil offer fast and reliable delivery (normally next working day) wherever you are in the country.
