PETRO Industrial has done well in customising our self-bunded low profile fuel storage trailer to meet mining specifications. The modifications and features demonstrate a commitment to complying with safety regulations and industry standards. Here's a breakdown of the features:
Modified Paint: The standard white trailer was changed to a black chassis and yellow body. This change in paint colour were done to align with the visual aesthetics preferred in the mining industry or to improve visibility in the mining environment.
Reflective Striping: Reflective striping is an essential safety feature that enhances visibility, especially in low-light conditions. By incorporating reflective striping on the trailer, PETRO ensures that it can be easily seen by personnel and vehicles in the mining area, reducing the risk of accidents.
Emergency Stop Button: Including an emergency stop button provides an immediate way to halt any operations or fuel transfer in case of an emergency or safety concern. This feature allows for quick response and helps prevent accidents or spills.
Yellow Beacon Light: The yellow beacon light is commonly used in hazardous or restricted areas to indicate caution and alert people to potential dangers. By incorporating a yellow beacon light on our trailer, PETRO improves the visibility of the fuel trailer, further increasing safety awareness in the mining environment.Â
By customising the self-bunded Fuel Trailer with these features, PETRO Industrial ensures that the trailer meets mining industry standards and regulations. This demonstrates a commitment to safety and compliance while providing a tailored solution for mining operations.
This is a well-equipped trailer setup for mining operations. Adding a diesel pump kit, hose reel, nozzle, and solar panel kit inside a lockable pump bay provides convenience, protection, and sustainability. Here's a breakdown of the features:
Diesel Pump Kit: This includes a diesel-powered pump designed to handle the specific needs of mining operations. It allows for efficient fuel transfer and is commonly used for refuelling heavy machinery or vehicles on-site.
Hose Reel: The hose reel is a mechanism for storing and deploying hoses used for various purposes, such as fuelling vehicles or transferring fluids. It helps keep the hoses organised, prevents tangles, and makes them easily accessible when needed.
Nozzle: The nozzle is an important component for controlling the flow of fuel or other fluids during transfer. It enables precise and efficient dispensing, ensuring minimal waste and spillage.
Solar Panel Kit: The solar panel kit consists of solar panels, mounting hardware, and a charge controller. By harnessing solar energy, it provides a sustainable power source to run equipment or charge batteries within the trailer. It reduces the reliance on traditional power sources and minimises environmental impact.
By securely fitting these features inside the lockable pump bay, you ensure protection from weather conditions and potential damage. The lockable enclosure adds an extra layer of security, safeguarding the valuable equipment and supplies stored inside.
Overall, this setup optimises the functionality and efficiency of the trailer, making it well-suited for mining operations by providing convenient and reliable fuelling capabilities while incorporating sustainable power generation.

Helping Transform a New Retirement Village into a Welcoming Community
As construction nears completion, extensive landscaping is often the final step in transforming a new development into a welcoming community. In this representative project scenario, a commercial landscaping contractor was tasked with completing gardens, communal spaces and surrounding grounds across a large retirement village. With multiple crews and diesel-powered machines working throughout the site, reliable access to fuel was essential. PETRO Hire provided a flexible on-site diesel storage and fuel-management solution, helping keep equipment fuelled, crews productive and the landscaping program moving toward completion.
Major infrastructure projects need reliable fuel without the cost and commitment of permanent infrastructure. In this representative water pipeline project, PETRO Hire provided two 4,500-litre self-bunded PC Cube tanks, delivering 9,000 litres of secure on-site fuel storage for heavy construction equipment. The flexible, relocatable solution kept machinery fuelled, reduced downtime and adapted to changing site requirements—demonstrating how PETRO Hire can scale fuel infrastructure as your project grows, changes and progresses.
Purpose-Built Pumping and Temperature Control for a Two-Year Hire
When specialised products require precise storage, temperature management and controlled transfer, a standard tank-and-pump solution may not be enough. In this project, PETRO Hire was approached to provide a 12,000L LT Tank for the storage and transfer of temperature-sensitive emulsion over an initial two-year hire period. Rather than supplying off-the-shelf equipment, PETRO engineered a purpose-built package incorporating customised pumping equipment, insulated and lagged pipework, integrated controls and protected service infrastructure—delivering a complete storage and transfer solution designed specifically around the customer’s process.
