RATIONING OF FUEL CONSUMPTION WITH THE USE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

Introduction. One of the directions of expenses on motor transportations’ reduction is the usage of such document as «The regulations of the fuels’ and lubricants’ expenses on motor transport» approved by the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation. However, the normalization of fuel consumption is difficult due to the high probability of errors by the manual calculation. Currently, there is no methodology for determining the correction factors for taking into account the existing operating conditions for the stock of vehicles.

Materials and methods. Full-scale studies of fuel consumption on the routes of motor transport with the use of satellite navigation systems for the purpose of collecting statistical data are carried out. Moreover, the specialized software product called «The fuel consumption calculator» is developed to reduce the complexity and improve the accuracy of calculations.

Results. The collected statistics’ data allows to determine the real need of fuel and to estimate the discrepancy with pre-calculated fuel need according to Federal Standards. As a result, quantitative information is obtained and justified, which makes it possible to clarify the coefficients that take into account the operating conditions of vehicles in the calculation of fuel consumption. In addition, the usage of «The fuel consumption calculator « allows to improve the management culture, to simplify and accelerate the work of the enterprise staff with numerical data.

Discussion and conclusion. It can be concluded that the confirmed researches prove that the fuel consumption calculation program allows to reduce the labor expenditures of the vehicles’ operators on the scheduling process of the fuel and money expenses for vehicles’ transportation work. It is also easier to determine the saving or overspending of fuel due to the results of vehicles’ work on the line. The program «The fuel consumption calculator « is introduced in JSC «Vyksa metallurgical plant», CJSC «Geostroy», CJSC “Dorstroyservice”. Control measurements with the use of satellite navigation systems also allow to specify correction factors and to increase validity of norms.
