KBR Forward Operating Base Fuel Systems

Operation Desert Storm / Iraqi Freedom

SmartTank designed and built over 1,000 forward operating base fuel systems for KBR supporting military operations in the Middle East. These high-capacity dual-product systems provided reliable Mogas and JP-8 dispensing in extreme desert conditions, with dual hose dispensing as well as truck loading capability.

Design Specifications

  • 143 degF operating temperature rating
  • UL 2085 Fireguard construction
  • Dual-product: Mogas & JP-8
  • Dual hose dispensing
  • Truck loading capability

Built for Transport

  • Victaulic roll-grooved stainless steel piping
  • Designed for rough terrain transport
  • Fuel truck-style piping system
  • Shaded equipment enclosure
  • Zero leaks despite harsh conditions

"A soldier once told us he didn't feel safe when deployed far from one. The shaded enclosure also became a popular spot for a cool nap in the 143 degF heat."

- Over 1,000 units deployed with zero leaks or service issues, despite the potholes between here and Baghdad.

Truck Fueling at BioWillie Station
BioWillie Biodiesel Tank with Mural Willie Nelson Bio Diesel Fuel Tank Willie Nelson Bio Diesel Fuel Tank Installed

BioWillie - First Truckstop Biodiesel

Carl's Corner, Texas - 2005

SmartTank supplied the first biodiesel tank to sell biodiesel at a truckstop in America. The project came together when a biodiesel distributor called from the golf course - he was playing with Willie Nelson, who liked our tanks and wanted to sell biodiesel at his friend Carl Cornelius's truckstop in Carl's Corner, Texas.

The Tank

  • 4,000 gallon capacity
  • Trade-in from USPS Dallas
  • Donated to the project
  • Custom mural by Kelly Curry
  • Second tank added for B20

Historic First

  • First truckstop biodiesel in USA
  • B100 and B20 products
  • Willie Nelson partnership
  • Carl's Corner Truckstop
  • Launched BioWillie brand

"They decided they wanted two tanks. I said I couldn't afford to give them the second one for free, but if I could shake Willie's hand I'd give it to them at cost. Willie piped in: 'Hey Todd, if you give it to me for free I'll shake anything you want.'"

- Todd Fitzsimmons, SmartTank Corporation

The Mural: The tank needed a paint touch-up for such a high-profile project, so muralist Kelly Curry (Todd's cousin) created this design depicting the transition from polluting industry to clean, sustainable biodiesel agriculture.

Rolls Royce Engine Test Facility

NASA Stennis Space Center, Mississippi

Multi-tank fuel farm supporting Rolls Royce jet engine testing operations at NASA's Stennis Space Center. NASA funded the fuel infrastructure as an incentive to bring Rolls Royce to the facility, with the bid specification requiring SmartTank equipment exclusively.

Installation

  • Three-tank Jet A configuration
  • High-capacity engine test support
  • Precision fueling requirements
  • NASA facility standards
  • Integrated dispensing systems

Aerospace Application

  • Jet engine test operations
  • Rolls Royce specifications
  • Continuous operation capability
  • Fuel quality critical
  • Zero tolerance environment

"When the NASA bid came out, it specified the fuel farm had to be supplied by SmartTank per Rolls Royce specifications. Equals will not be considered."

Siemens Turbine Generator Fuel System on Custom Trailer

Siemens Turbine Generator Fuel Systems

PDVSA - Venezuela

SmartTank was tasked with designing fuel systems for Siemens turbine generators destined for remote locations in Venezuela. The critical requirement: the turbine must shut down before fuel stops flowing - a pump power failure could damage extremely expensive equipment.

Fail-Safe Engineering

  • Redundant pump systems
  • Stainless steel accumulators
  • Flexible diaphragm design
  • Compressed air backup
  • 60+ seconds fuel flow after pump failure

Custom Delivery Solution

  • Hydraulic lift trailer
  • Raises to clear railroad tracks
  • Lowers to pass under bridges
  • Deploys on crushed stone
  • No crane or concrete pad required

The accumulators are stainless pressure vessels with a flexible diaphragm that continues to supply fuel for a minute after pump shutdown using compressed air - protecting millions of dollars in turbine equipment.

- 16 units built for remote PDVSA installations across Venezuela
