Engineers, Superintendents, and Managers Now Have an Unbiased Volume Accounting System

Stage 3, a leader in high-quality solids control equipment for closed-loop mud systems, has built its reputation on innovation and reliability. The company specialises in helping operators manage solids efficiently and reduce operational costs. Through ongoing investment in technology, Stage 3 continues to improve performance and accuracy across oilfield operations.

One major step forward has been the adoption of Loadscan’s Load Volume Scanner (LVS) — a game-changing solution for oilfield waste volume measurement and material management.

The Challenge: Accurately Measuring Oilfield Waste Volumes

In oilfield operations, managing the movement and disposal of waste materials can be complex and costly. Traditional measurement methods rely heavily on estimates — such as bucket counts or trailer capacities — which can introduce human error and inaccuracies.

“With increased costs associated with the disposal of oilfield waste, volume accounting has never been more important in reducing liability and expenses,” said a Stage 3 representative. “Loadscan has impressed our client base by improving trucking and disposal efficiency, thus driving down costs and earning new business.”

The Solution: Loadscan Load Volume Scanner

How Loadscan LVS Works

The Loadscan Load Volume Scanner uses advanced 3D laser scanning technology to precisely measure the volume of material in every truck load. The non-contact system captures a detailed 3D profile of each load, calculating exact cubic volume and estimated weight with industry-leading accuracy (±1%).

This data is instantly available through Loadscan’s software platform, giving engineers and site managers real-time insight into how much material is being hauled — both to and from the job site.

The Results: Improved Accuracy, Reduced Costs

By integrating Loadscan’s technology, Stage 3 and its clients gained an unbiased volume accounting system that eliminates estimation errors and provides clear visibility into every load.

Accurate oilfield waste volume measurement helps teams:

  • Prevent overcharging on disposal and haul-back volumes

  • Monitor truck movements and operator performance

  • Optimise resource use and improve site efficiency

  • Document every load for regulatory and compliance reporting

Stage 3 reports that Loadscan has helped their clients reduce trucking and disposal costs by an average of 25%, while improving transparency and confidence in load verification.

The Bottom Line: Precision That Pays Off

In an industry where every cubic yard and every dollar matters, Loadscan delivers measurable results. Its reliable, easy-to-use load scanning technology gives oilfield operators total control over waste tracking, cost management, and accountability.

For companies seeking to optimise performance and reduce costs, accurate oilfield waste volume measurement through Loadscan is the smarter, more efficient way forward.
