Bulk Fuel Farm Existing Line Re-certifications

Meccon was hired by Allied Aviation (fuel system operator) and the JFK Fuel committee to certify 11 – 12" & 10" existing transfer mains. Meccon had to layout and construct 5 different flushing stations to create a loop flush closed system within the active Fuel Storage Facility. We had to match the existing piping configuration without causing any fueling delays. We were able to circulate roughly 33,200,000 gallons of jet fuel over 36 days @ 75psi and 3000fps. Due to the quality control we had and the flushing plan not one gallon was wasted and all the fuel flushed was certified clean per ATA 103 & ASTM D-1655 Fueling standard. All 11 lines were put back into service to give JFK more pumping capacity than before.

Delta Air Lines Terminal 4, Concourse B Expansion; Hydrant Fuel System Piping

Construct a new double wall underground jet fuel hydrant system consisting of carbon steel containment and triple wall pipe casing/containment system. The work included the construction of four (4) new concrete isolation valve vaults and piping modifications to an existing main jet fuel isolation valve vault. Upgrades to the Terminal 4 primary pumping system included combining the existing individual pump systems into a common discharge header and an integrated pump control system.

New jet fuel piping testing and commissioning was designed and performed by Meccon including a loop flush system for the new Concourse Hydrant System and flushing into frac tanks to commission the existing aircraft "hardstand" parking positions.
