Case Study: African Oil Transportation Company achieves 40% fuel savings ($45,000/month) with Gurtam

African Oil Transportation Company - Customer Case Study

African Oil Transportation Company, a long-haul raw material transporter, faced unreliable tracking with poor real-time data, low coverage, no fuel-theft prevention, and lacked driver-control tools to reduce accidents and fuel use. To solve this, they switched providers and adopted Gurtam’s Wialon Hosting (deployed by integrator Tazi360 with BICS connectivity) to meet their monitoring and safety needs.

Tazi360 implemented the Wialon-based system using BICS SIMs, Ruptela FM‑Eco4+S trackers, fuel tank level sensors and Sage integration, adding geofences, real‑time alerts (overspeeding, route deviations, idling, harsh driving), fuel-theft detection and eco-driving analytics. The Gurtam solution delivered permanent real-time connectivity, improved driver safety, prevented fuel theft and reduced fuel consumption by 40% (about $45,000 saved per month), with ongoing enhancements planned.
