Claim 0:
1. A mobile fluid transfer system configured to service a plurality of machines, comprising:
a fluid evacuation system comprising a first fluid storage container;
a fluid refill system comprising a second fluid storage container;
a fluid containment system surrounding the first and second fluid storage containers;
a sensing system coupled to the fluid evacuation system and the fluid refill system, wherein the sensing system comprises:
a first sensing device configured to measure a level of a fluid within the first fluid storage container;
a second sensing device configured to measure a level of a fluid within the second fluid storage container; and
a third sensing device configured to detect a presence of a fluid proximate a floor of the fluid containment system and external to the first and second fluid storage containers; and

a control circuit coupled to the sensing system, the fluid evacuation system and the fluid refill system, wherein the control circuit is configured to:
receive a work order to service a number of machines of the plurality of machines;
determine a required volume of the first fluid to fulfill the work order;
determine a level of a first fluid in the first fluid storage container based on a first signal from the sensing system;
calculate a volume of the first fluid within the first fluid storage container based on the determined level of the first fluid in the first fluid storage container; and
determine that the calculated volume of the first fluid is less than the required volume of the first fluid; and
transmit a notification that the calculated volume of the first fluid is insufficient to fulfill the work order based on the determination that the calculated volume of the first fluid is less than the required volume of the first fluid.
