Cadec Global helps Gibson go paperless
Feb 1, 2008 12:00 PM
Cadec Global has published a new case study on customer Gibson Energy Ltd., which is using a paperless trucking fleet management system from Cadec.
Calgary, Canada-based Gibson develops, implements, and supports midstream systems for the oil and gas industry, moving oil, gas and other energy-related products between producers and refiners. The company runs an owner-operated fleet of more than 660 tanker trucks.
Recently, Gibson's transportation management group sought to remove paper from its fleet management process. Its top priorities were to track truck movements across Gibson's wide rural territory, and to capture data from the trucks and relay it back to the yard via a terrestrial cell network. Now, Gibson is able to send dispatch details to trucks via the Cadec On-Board Computer (OBC); the Cadec OBC returns details such as volume and density of product back to dispatch. No paper is required and the data is conveyed in real time.
