Dec. 3--Oil refineries and depots nationwide will be linked electronically so that oil inflows and outflows can be monitored closely.

The online network would enable officials to precisely check where oil had been transferred and by how much, said Metta Bantherngsuk, director of the Energy Policy and Planning Office (EPPO).

"We can detect fraud immediately if an unusual transfer of oil at any place takes place," he said.

The network would link individual sites with the EPPO, the National Police Office, the Customs Department and the Excise Department.

The system will minimise the chance of oil traders cheating and would help prevent sales of adulterated oil products.

A foreign firm that has not been identified was hired to study the system, modelled on one in the United States, which had a proven record in clamping down on the illegal oil trade.
