How to fuel at the Physical Plant

Please refer to the University of Calgary Driver's Handbook - Appendix 1.1 - Refueling Procedures for the Physical Plant Fuel Site to understand how to refuel at the Physical Plant. Note that there is only gas at this site; if you need diesel, you must fuel up at a station.

Getting your unicard set up for the Physical Plant

In order to enable your UCID to work for the Physical Plant fuel pump, we recommend sending an email to motorpool@ucalgary.ca with the following information:

  • Your first and last name
  • Photos of the front and back of your UCID card
  • Number(s) of U of C fleet vehicle(s) that you will be driving
  • Your manager/supervisor's name, and the manager(s) of the corresponding vehicles

You should send this email with a bit of lead time prior to your trip, as it may take some time to get your card working.
