Liquid Tank Levels

We have been asked to measure the levels of water and oil in two tanks in this home. Any experience on the best way to do this and the kind of sensors we will need?
Is there also a simple way that we can calculate consumption levels?

EDIT: A google search using the phrase liquid level gage or liquid level gauge turns up some stuff too in case no one else chimes in.
Unfortunately I'm not sure which sensor the water company used.
This has an RS485 interface and can be used for Oil, Water, Fuel, Sewage, etc... : http://www.ssitechnologies.com/Smart_485_Level_Transducers.html
Here's the RS485 Protocol Doc: http://www.ssitechnologies.com/PDF/Application%20Notes/AT_AN14_AcutTrac_Smart_485_Mode_Messaging.pdf
