Fuel Testing Service

If you're storing diesel, regular fuel testing isn’t just a box-ticking exercise—it’s a smart move that can save you from some serious headaches down the line. 

Diesel doesn’t age like fine wine. Over time, it can degrade, pick up water, grow microbial contamination, or accumulate sludge and particulates. Left unchecked, this can lead to clogged filters, poor combustion, or even total system failure.

Fuel testing gives you a clear snapshot of what’s actually in your tank. It checks for water content, microbial contamination, particulate levels, oxidation stability, and more. Think of it as a health check for your diesel. 

If something’s off, you’ll know early, which gives you time to fix the issue before it damages your engine, generator, or fuel dispensing system.

Fuel testing massively reduces the risk of fuel-related failures when carried out regularly. It’s one of the simplest, most cost-effective ways to keep your fuel system reliable, efficient, and compliant with industry and environmental standards.

Even if your diesel looks clean, problems can lurk literally below the surface. Testing is the only way to be sure your fuel is ready to perform when it matters most.

The bottom line is that if you're storing diesel, don’t just trust that it’s fine. Know for sure. Regular fuel testing gives you the confidence that your system is protected and your fuel is up to spec, no surprises, no downtime.

Fuel samples can be visually assessed or laboratory tested, depending on what we are trying to find out. Lab tests are to ISO 18/16/13
