Problem Statement: Illegal fuel hoarding usually done by irresponsible drivers when they transport the oil from terminal to the gas stations. Many technologies already used by Pertamina (Indonesian National Oil Company) to prevent that case, but it has proved ineffectiveness until now. Therefore, the authors designed and created the automatic alarming system designed specially for oil tank truck. The system used microcontroller, GSM (Global System for Mobile communication) module, GPS (Global Positioning System), and ultrasonic sensors. Algorithm created based on survey done in the oil terminal and observation toward irresponsible driver habits when stealing the oil. Experiment results have proven that this system can do basic task to protect oil distribution from oil terminal to gas station, gas station to gas station, then returns to oil terminal. The application of this system is expected to be useful for reducing fuel scarcity due to illegal fuel hoarding and potentially help Pertamina and the gas station owners from financial losses with the much cheaper and effective system.
