Fill your own fuel at all Enoc-Eppco stations

The entire service station network of Emirates National Oil Company (Enoc) and Emirates Petroleum Products Company (Eppco) in Dubai now offers the self-service facility from midnight to 6am, the companies announced today in a media statement.

This follows the introduction of the self-service facility during late operational hours at 23 more service stations across the Enoc/Eppco network from April 13, 2014, taking the total number of service stations providing the facility to 88.

Along with the introduction of the self-service option, Enoc/Eppco said they have also enhanced the convenience of motorists by accepting fuel purchase payments at the forecourt itself. This avoids the need to visit the convenience store to make the payment.

“We have achieved a milestone in implementing fuel self-service during late operational hours across our entire Enoc/Eppco network in Dubai. Our goal is to extend the facility to regular operational hours,” said a spokesperson of Enoc.

“More motorists are now using the self-service facility effortlessly, with the added convenience of making the payment at the forecourt itself. We are thankful to our customers for adopting the initiative, which gives them the freedom to fill-pay and go, at their convenience.”

The new sites where the self-service facility has been implemented are along 2nd December Street, Oud Metha Road, The Meadows, Discovery Gardens, Al Barsha 1 and 3, Al Mamzar, Al Ittihad Road, Mirdif, Al Warqaa, Al Twar, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road, Al Mizhar, Al Awir, Emirates Road and Al Qusais.

Enoc has also introduced ViP (Vehicle Identification Pass), a radio frequency identification (RFID) based fuel retailing system, offering fully automated operations, whereby registered commercial users and fleet owners can fuel on-the-go without having to pay in cash or use credit cards. ViP automatically recognises the registered vehicle being fuelled and deducts the cost from the registered user’s account.

Enoc/Eppco has fully secure fuel dispenser payment systems across the network for easier use by the motorists, it said. The introduction of self-service results in no staff redundancies as affected staff members are being deployed in other service stations within the network, the media statement highlighted.
