Emergency Fueling Service
During plant turnaround phases, it is common for fuel suppliers to run out of fuel, leading to expensive disruptions in business operations. Instead of facing financial losses, refineries should look for other fuel sources to keep their operations going.
Apache Oil Company offers emergency fueling services to plants, refineries, and similar manufacturing facilities whenever needed. Our services are available 24/7 and are designed to handle emergencies as soon as they happen. They are especially helpful for companies dealing with urgent plant shutdowns.
We also provide emergency fueling services in situations where natural disasters have damaged your plant or refinery, causing a loss of fuel supply. If you find yourself in a similar situation, feel free to reach out to us.

Managing operations becomes even more challenging during difficult refinery turnaround periods, mainly when there is not enough labor and materials. Apache Oil Company offers a convenient fueling and lubricant service right on-site for plants operating with limited resources that cannot afford to lose their fuel. This enables you to carry on with your work or make up for any deficits, helping you focus on improving your operations.
Our inclusive on-site fueling and lubricant service benefits more than just the oil, chemical, and petrochemical industries. It covers a wide range of sectors, from construction sites and leased properties to strip centers, refrigeration setups, and businesses with truck fleets.

Oil Analysis
According to Wikipedia, oil analysis (OA) means testing the properties, foreign particles, and worn-out pieces in lubricants in a laboratory. This analysis helps in preventive maintenance by providing important information about the condition of the lubricant and the machine.
By consistently monitoring and tracking oil analysis results for a particular machine, valuable patterns can be identified, which helps prevent costly repairs. The study of machinery wear is called tribology, and tribologists often conduct or interpret oil analysis data.
OA can be divided into three categories:
- Analysis of oil properties, including those of the base oil and its additives
- Analysis of contaminants
- Analysis of wear debris from machinery
