Trident Shell reopens after installation of new pumps

We are delighted to announce that our Shell filling station in Ottershaw has now fully re-opened, after the installation of new pumps.

The intention had been for us to continue serving fuel throughout the works, replacing each pump in turn. Unfortunately this proved impossible, as the work required was more extensive than expected, and we were forced to close for fuel sales for two weeks.

Thankfully this work has now been completed, and we have fully reopened again today for both fuel and shop.

The integrated media screens have yet to be commissioned, and so for a few weeks will be displaying the stock images installed by the manufacturer.

About the changes

Trident Shell has invested in four new state-of-the-art Tokheim Quantium 510M fuel dispensers with the latest 17" colour displays. We have also taken the opportunity of ensuring that all grades are available at all dispensers, for the convenience of our customers. The new dispensers will also support the ability to prepay for fuel at the till, as well as accept payment via the Shell Go+ app.

The 'Rolls Royce' of fuel dispensers, the Tokheim Quantium dispensers have been engineered to dispense fuel with outstanding precision and reliability. These high-performance models have been built with field-proven, high-quality components to stand the test of time.

Other changes

The replacement of our fuel dispensers is the latest in a series of improvements at Trident Shell. These have included new tills and back-office systems, new flooring, new shop fittings, as well as new low-energy chillers. A new freezer has also been installed, which will enable us to extend our icecream and frozen food offering.
