What is a Portable Petrol Pump?
A Portable Petrol Pump is a self-contained, movable fuel station that can be installed and operational in as little as 2 hours. It comes in a standardized container, fully equipped for the storage and dispensing of petrol, diesel, kerosene, or LPG, and can be moved wherever needed, urban, rural, highways, or disaster zones. Unlike traditional petrol pumps, these units do not require permanent infrastructure or large land area.

The integrated touchscreen terminal and camera system ensure both security and ease of use.
Steps to Use a Portable Petrol Pump:
- Select fuel and amount on the touchscreen.
- Make payment via card/e-wallet.
- Authorize transaction with PIN or contactless method.
- Dispense the required fuel, no attendant needed.
- Collect the digital or printed receipt.
