GD Jones Chooses TEX for New Tanker Build.

Helping GD Jones modernise a new tanker build with a TEX electronic meter system and temperature compensation.

When GD Jones commissioned a new mini three-pot tanker from Morrow Tankers, they wanted a metering solution that would provide greater visibility, improved operational control and a platform for future growth. Having previously used alternative systems across their fleet, this project marked the company’s first installation of a TEX electronic meter system from Sampi. Working closely with both GD Jones and Morrow Tankers, Alpeco supplied and integrated a TEX system complete with electronic temperature compensation, delivering a modern, connected solution ready for the demands of today’s fuel distribution industry.

The challenge.

As part of a new tanker build, GD Jones wanted to:

  • Upgrade to a more advanced electronic metering platform
  • Improve delivery accuracy and operational visibility
  • Benefit from electronic temperature compensation
  • Reduce reliance on manual processes
  • Futureproof the vehicle with a system capable of supporting additional functionality as requirements evolve
  • Ensure seamless integration with the new tanker build

What we did.

Alpeco worked alongside GD Jones and Morrow Tankers to specify and install a complete TEX metering solution from Sampi.

The system included:

  • TEX electronic meter system
  • Electronic temperature compensation
  • Integration into the new mini three-pot tanker build
  • Full commissioning and calibration
  • Operator training and support

TEX was selected because it offers a highly intuitive operator experience while delivering the accuracy, control and connectivity required by modern fuel distributors. Its large colour display, advanced product management capabilities and future-ready architecture make it an ideal solution for operators looking to modernise their fleet.

The result.

The completed vehicle provides GD Jones with a modern delivery platform that combines proven metering performance with enhanced operational control.

Benefits include:

  • Improved visibility of deliveries and vehicle operations
  • Accurate temperature compensated measurement
  • Simplified operation for drivers
  • Reduced manual administration
  • Greater flexibility for future integration and system upgrades
  • Enhanced reliability and long term support

For GD Jones, this first TEX installation represents an important step forward in modernising fleet technology and exploring the benefits of a connected metering platform. With the new tanker now in operation, the business is well positioned to take advantage of the additional functionality and efficiencies that TEX can deliver.

By choosing TEX from Sampi, GD Jones has invested in a future-ready metering solution designed to improve accuracy, visibility and operational efficiency for years to come.
