TankDepotcouk puts a lid on oil tank fuel thefts!

Released on: July 13, 2008, 11:59 am

Press Release Author: TankDepot.co.uk

Industry: Energy

Press Release Summary: Following recent reports of an increase in fuel theft across
the UK, online oil tank specialist TankDepot.co.uk has launched a new range of
lockable caps and lids.

Press Release Body: Leading online oil tank supplier TankDepot.co.uk has launched a
new range of lockable lids and caps, in response to recent reports of home heating
oil, diesel and biodiesel being stolen from storage tanks across the United Kingdom.


Two products are available, designed to suit most Harlequin fuel oil tanks
manufactured since 1997. The new 4” Lockable Oil Tank Inspection Cap can be fitted
in minutes and is designed to accept a numeric or key activated padlock. Quick and
easy to install, with no specialist tools required, the new lid acts as a useful
deterrent against fuel theft and restricts entry through the 4” diameter inspection
point fitted to all Harlequin tanks.

Complementing the new 4” Lockable Cap is a Lockable Oil Tank Fill Point Assembly.
Manufactured from a specialist oil and corrosion resistant alloy, the Lockable Oil
Tank Fill Point Assembly is also designed for use with a padlock and replaces the
existing 2” diameter Fill Point, found on most Harlequin Single Skin and Bunded
Heating Oil Tanks, together with the company\'s range of Bunded Biodiesel and Diesel
Storage Tanks.

TankDepot.co.uk’s Philip Breek says, “Whilst fuel thefts remain the exception, in
light of today’s historically high energy prices, consumers understandably wish to
protect the fuel stored inside their oil tank. Lockable lids and caps in themselves
will not eliminate the issue of fuel theft, but they will act as a useful deterrent.


“These new lockable caps and lids not only restrict entry to an oil storage tank,
but can deter opportunistic fuel theft. Best of all, they cost only a fraction of
the value of the fuel stored inside even a small, home heating oil tank. And whilst
both products have been designed primarily for fitting to Harlequin oil tanks,
usefully they will also fit some oil tanks supplied by other manufacturers.”

Both items are now available to order online from the TankDepot.co.uk website, which
also contains information of oil tank compatibility, together with downloadable
technical data sheets and product installation instructions.
