Jet Fuel System for Cairo International Airport-Terminal Building 3

The jet fuel system allows refueling personnel to manage, pump, and deliver fuel to aircraft either at remote stands or at the apron connected gates.
This project covered the installation of a jet fuel pumping station and a control system attached to the jet fuel storage tanks already existing at Terminal Building 3. The control system encompasses a distributed control system, distribution network, and jet fuel hydrants.
The system of jet fuel hydrants includes 13 km-long 14” pipelines, 1 km-long 6”, 8”, and 24” pipelines, and three 17-bar pumps (each 250 m3/hr), along with cathodic protection, leak detection, filtration, instrumentation and control systems.
The system is designed for the simultaneous refueling of 10 airplanes at 70 different new parking locations.
