At AIRD Tanzania, the fuel department plays an indispensable role in powering international humanitarian operations. Led by a dedicated senior fuel supervisor and an attentive fuel clerk, this team works around the clock to ensure that vehicles supporting UNHCR and its partners are always ready for action.

Their work goes beyond simply refueling. The fuel clerk carefully checks each vehicle’s mileage before filling up the tank, ensuring that only the necessary amount of diesel is provided. This meticulous attention to detail prevents wastage and ensures that each vehicle is fueled efficiently, and ready to undertake critical missions without delay.

Thanks to their tireless efforts, humanitarian vehicles remain operational 24/7, able to reach remote locations and provide vital aid where it’s needed most. The fuel department’s dedication and precision ensure that no journey is hindered, allowing life-saving missions to proceed smoothly, and making them a vital part of the organization’s mission
