Advisian’s Petroleum, Chemicals & Energy Practice develops and provides several software applications, databases, and reporting tools for the refining, pipeline, trucking, rail, and marine industries. Several of these applications assist clients in meeting regulatory compliance requirements.
Gasoline Compliance Tracking and Reporting Software
As part of the Clean Air Act of 1990, the U.S. EPA formulated regulations of fuel and fuel additives dealing with standards for reformulated and conventional gasolines sold in the United States. The regulations are complex and the penalties for non-compliance are severe. This makes it imperative for refiners, gasoline blenders, and importers to take advantage of automated tools that will improve accuracy of the flow and tank data measurements and make compliance calculations and reporting as easy as possible.
