  Some go to refueling depot.
  Some refueled at terminal after operations ends at night, by road tankers.

  There are 3 SMRT depots, 5 SBST depots and 2 SBST bus parks all over in Singapore
  
  Depending on which bus serving on which area, the buses will go back to its own nearby depot to refuel, normally refuelling will be done at the end of the day. (Of course SMRT buses will go back to their own SMRT depot lah)

  Yes . Its HGDEP or Hougang Depot.
  
  To answer TS question , its highly unlikely that the bus will run out of fuel during its daily journey. BC are required to check their fuel tanks remaining how much fuel. If theres not enough for a full journey , the bus will go off svc and go back to the depot to refuel.

  No way.
  
  Buses parked at interchanges may run to depot for refuelling before the night ends, or refuel in between shifts.
  
  CNG buses have to refuel at Jurong Island.

  I don't think there's a fuel gauge... At least not for LO3x. the BC just anyhow guess.

  AFAIK , some SMRT's Merc have working fuel gauges. As for those buses without working fuel gauges , the BC still can guess , by judging the journey time spent. But i won't be surprised if the bus runs out of fuel halfway thru.
