Shell increases presence of AdBlue at the pump

Shell has added AdBlue to another six locations across major truck routes in Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia and Western Australia

January 18, 2013

Shell is doubling its AdBlue at pump presence at Coles Express locations across Australia to meet the growing demand of trucks with selective catalytic reduction (SCR).

Shell has added AdBlue to another six locations across major truck routes in Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia and Western Australia.

It says the AdBlue solution meets industry requirements. Shell says about 50 percent of new trucks are built with SCR technology and require AdBlue to reduce emissions.

“With most truck manufacturers signaling they will incorporate SCR technology to engines to meet next level emission regulations, it will be important for drivers to access AdBlue conveniently at the pump whilst filling up,” Shell Transport Marketing Manager Gavin Corcoran says.

The new sites include Dandenong and Kalkallo in Victoria, Sutton Forest and Eastern Creek in NSW, Mansfield Park in South Australia, and Kewdale in Western Australia.

The original AdBlue Coles Express sites include Laverton North in Victoria, Hexham in NSW, Rocklea, Mount Isa and Banyo in Queensland, and Ceduna in South Australia.

AdBlue is also sold in 10-litre packs at more than 140 Coles Express and Shell retail sites.

“It’s a convenience factor for truck drivers to have AdBlue available at the pump. Drivers can fill both diesel and AdBlue tanks simultaneously at one location, saving time and another stop,” Coles Express General Manager Peter Short says.
