A refueling system, comprising a drum rotatable to wind and unwind a hose, a carriage guiding the hose and lineally displaceable along a shaft parallel to the longitudinal direction of the drum so as to follow the movement of the hose along the drum. The shaft allows the displacement of the carriage along its length. A motor is coupled to the carriage and displaces the carriage along the shaft. A first position sensor communicates with the carriage to obtain its position. A second position sensor communicates with the drum to obtain the position of the hose. A control system is coupled to the first and the second sensor, to compare their obtained positions and to operate the motor.
