Overview

Pursuant to EO 14154, and EO 14210, government agencies are being directed to improve energy efficiency, strengthen operational resilience, and reduce lifecycle costs across mission-critical infrastructure.

The government operates thousands of fuel storage systems that support mission critical operations, such as emergency generators, fleet and transportation assets, healthcare facilities, and military installations. The cost of fuel degradation, contamination, inefficient storage, and inadequate monitoring contributes to critical failures, fuel wastage, and disruptions. The use of Floating Suction Lines can help improve fuel quality and directly impact the cost of repairing damaged equipment and mission-critical failure.

This briefing will provide case studies of Floating Suction Lines and provide practical implementation procedures to improve fuel quality and reliability through effective fuel management systems. Participants will learn about effective new technology that can extend fuel life, reduce expenses, and improve readiness and productivity across critical government infrastructure.
