Fuel Filling Stations

Temporary Fuel Filling Station - Monks Cross

Arriving on site 2 weeks before the proposed redevelopment, the unit is ready to open on the morning after the shut-down of the main Fuel Filling Station. The site operates for the full works period, providing an alternative refuelling location for customers. It is closed the night before the reopening of the refurbished Fuel Filling Station and removed over a period of 2 weeks. The site is returned to car parking/landscaping.

innovation - new formats We combine our unrivalled technical experience with fresh design thinking to achieve unique solutions and to provide best value for our clients, such as in the temporary fuel filling station, small format FFS and our work in sustainable design solutions and alternative, cleaner fuels. temporary fuel filling stations This short-term solution was developed to provide continuity of trade during the environmental upgrade of a primary FFS. The proposal consists of two 80k litre tanks, providing two fuel grades and supported by portable manned kiosks. The success of the original installation led to the FFS being relocated to many other refurbishment and redevelopment sites, delivering a large percentage of the original FFS capacity in each case. small format fuel filling station We developed a design for the first small format (3-pump) FFS for Sainsbury’s. The design, which was delivered at a number of locations provided the client with a fuel offer at sites that were too space poor for a standard FFS provision. The format is designed to sit in small areas of landscaping at the edge of a site, or within existing car parking but requiring as few parking spaces as possible. The FFS design facilitates remote monitoring to operate as an unmanned facility, reducing costs to the store. above ground tanks Not all Fuel Filling Station sites are suitable for below ground tanks for a variety of reasons. We work closely with clients to assess the site requirements and identify the most suitable solution within the site constraints, budget and the need to make site operations safe and simple.

Small Format - Livingston

We carried out a car park utilisation study at Livingston Sainsbury’s in Scotland to determine if a new Fuel Filling Station was viable. The site was limited in space with car parking fully utilised at peak periods. This determined that a small format FFS was the optimum solution. The 3-pump, unmanned FFS was installed over an 8-week period by adjusting the access road and removing only 31 parking bays.

Above Ground Tanks

As part of a knock down and relocation of an existing Fuel Filling Station site it was a requirement of the EA for the client to install an above ground tank solution. This 9 pump site was the first above ground system for the client, and, working alongside the EA, Planners and local fire authority, we were able to deliver a scheme which met the needs of the customers and client whilst protecting local water courses and habitats.
