French term

de type source

French to English Tech/Engineering Petroleum Eng/Sci Fuel handling
The term refers to a fuel loading system. It means that the sysem can only supply (not receive) the product. I am wondering whether there is a corresponding term in the petroleum engineering jargon to render "de type source".
See below for the context.
Context
Le remplissage des citernes routières se fera par le biais de postes de chargement. Ces postes de chargement seront exclusivement *de type source* et répartis de la façon suivante
Proposed translations (English)
4 bottom loading
2 on-site loading (as opposed to "off-site loading")

I hope that is right I wish more folks would have contributed to this question. Remember to wait 24 hours before closing a question. It's only for your benefit.
Marco Solinas (asker) Feb 2, 2009:
Loading versus unloading. Matthew: what I think they mean is that at these stations you can only load the fuel onto tank truks. That they are not designed for unloading. I am tryng to find a compact way of coneying the idea. I am truly grateful for your effort.

will be loaded only at refineries Is that what they mean?

Chargement en source - Wikipedia

Le chargement en source relativement récent permet d'éviter au chargeur de devoir monter sur le camion-citerne et permet également d'avoir une comptabilité plus précise.

Le remplissage de la cuve se fera alors par le bas.
