Methods and systems for on demand fuel supply

A system for delivering a first fluid to a fluid consuming asset having a fluid tank comprising:

• a tank, wherein the tank contains the first fluid to be delivered to the fluid consuming asset;
• a manifold having a first inlet and one or more outlets, wherein the first inlet of the manifold is fluidically coupled to an outlet of the tank through a fluid coupling, and wherein the first fluid flows from the tank into the manifold through the first inlet;
• a first pressure relief valve disposed on the fuel delivery coupling between the outlet of the tank and the first inlet of the manifold,
• wherein the first pressure relief valve is set at a first predetermined pressure threshold,
• wherein the first pressure relief valve opens when the back-pressure in the fuel delivery coupling exceeds the first predetermined pressure threshold, and
• wherein the first fluid is directed back to the tank through a first recirculation inlet when the first pressure relief valve opens;
• a spigot fluidically coupled to one of the one or more outlets of the manifold,
• wherein a first distal end of the spigot is fluidically coupled to the one of the one or more outlets of the manifold and a second distal end of the spigot is fluidically coupled to a fluid transporting mechanism, and
• wherein the fluid transporting mechanism comprises a first distal end fluidically coupled to the second distal end of the spigot and a second distal end;
• and
• a fill cap, wherein the fill cap comprises:
• a connection plate, wherein the connection plate is coupled to an opening of a fluid tank of the fluid consuming asset;
• a hydraulic connector fluidically coupled to the second distal end of the fluid transporting mechanism;
• a float probe disposed within the fluid tank of the fluid consuming asset and fluidically couple to the hydraulic connector, the float probe comprising:
• an upper assembly having one or more outlets;
• a plurality of rods extending from the upper assembly to a lower assembly,
• wherein the rods have a first distal end and a second distal end;
• wherein the first distal end of the rods is coupled to the upper assembly;
• and
• wherein the second distal end of the rods is coupled to the lower assembly;
• a float assembly disposed between the upper assembly and the lower assembly,
• wherein the rods extend along an outer surface of the float assembly;
• wherein the float assembly is movable along the rods between a first position proximate to the upper assembly and a second position proximate to the lower assembly;
• and
• wherein the float assembly is configured to prevent fluid flow out of the outlets when disposed in the first position.

A method of regulating fluid flow into a fluid consuming asset having a tank, the method comprising:

• disposing a float probe in the tank;
• disposing a float assembly between an upper assembly and a lower assembly of the float probe, wherein the float assembly is movable between a first position proximate to the upper assembly and a second position proximate to the lower assembly;
• directing fluid through a hydraulic connector into the upper assembly of the float probe;
• directing fluid out of one or more outlets disposed on the upper assembly and into the tank when the float assembly is in the second position;
• moving the float assembly from the second position towards the first position as level of fluid in the tank rises, wherein the float assembly reaches the first position when the level of fluid in the tank reaches a predetermined maximum level;
• preventing fluid flow out of the one or more outlets when the float assembly reaches the first position.
