Burkina Faso shift billing: fuel by actual use or by quota?

Earthworks are billed per shift; the client allows 120 L, we measure 145.
The gap is haul distance: 260 m one way against 150 m in the quota.
The contract says nothing about fuel. What is the strongest basis for a supplement?

Put shift logs and fuel slips on the table and convert to actual distance and cycles; stronger than arguing over the quota.

Write the measurement method into the supplement: dispenser output minus remaining fuel, signed by both sides, reconciled monthly.

Tiered pricing by haul distance also works: a premium beyond 200 m is easier for the client to accept and cuts disputes.
