Reliable Fuel Supply for a North Canterbury Ag-Air Operation

How RD Petroleum Keeps Motunau Ag Air Ltd Going

Bill Byrch, together with his wife Petrina, runs Motunau Ag-Air Ltd from their family farm in North Canterbury, a 600-hectare sheep and beef property. Bill runs the flying side of the business himself, with the help of a loader driver or two, servicing North Canterbury and parts of mid-Canterbury through to Southland. Spring and autumn are busy seasons, with a lot of spraying work through the summer months as well.

In this testimonial, Bill explains just how much the business depends on fuel to keep operating, in a busy month, Motunau Ag-Air can use up to 30,000 litres of jet fuel and 3,000 to 4,000 litres of diesel. He talks about the tanks and trailers RD Petroleum has supplied and leased to them over the years, and why he's never had a single supply issue in all that time.

"Any questions or just ring up, and it's too easy. I'd highly recommend them, just a very good company to deal with."
