120k Fuel System Supply Point - Light

Khertland peacekeeping and counter-terror operations in Reten has revealed significant logistical shortcomings despite operating in a relatively small area. The lack of a modular storage system forced commanders to keep their trucks as a rolling storage unit. Also due to the peacekeeping nature of the mission, significant amount of trucks were used to transport humanitarian supplies to and from various settlements. This led to combat units returning to base for resupply rather than waiting for trucks to deliver supplies to the front. Doctrinally, the 3 companies of trucks would be cycled through the refilling, transit, and delivery process for continuous flow to front line units. Due to the trucks being tied up, the system broke down in actual combat. The failure prompted a comprehensive plan to address it with the Khertland Army expanding its logistical and engineering elements to better support ground operations. A part of this effort is an introduction of an modular fuel depot system that could be set up in-theater to support divisional operations. The depots can be set up along key nodes such as bases with a network of pipelines connecting these nodes throughout the rear area. Trucks can then be freed up to tap into this network almost anywhere and deliver it to combat units.
Additionally, constructing this infrastructure required an expanded engineering support which was already in short supply based on combat experience. Due to the counter-insurgency nature of the conflict, significant amount of the engineering support units went to reconstruction efforts around the country. The shortage was so severe, the two divisions deployed had to be supplemented by engineering elements from three other divisions, despite the latter not committing any combat units. This assortment of attached support elements formed the temporary 'Emergency Construction Brigade.' Part of the goal is to replace the ECB with a more permanent organic solution.

This is based on the US army 'Fuel System Supply Point' concept. It is a almost a exact replica(but it's NOT a replica) with a few changes in the layout and components.

The Fuel System Supply Point (FSSP) is a type of modular fuel storage system used by the United States Army and comes in three sizes with multiple arrangements for each. Liquid logistics is managed by the Division Sustainment Brigade (DSB) attached to a division but generally is under the authority of a separate Sustainment Command for coordinating the overall effort. DSBs have subordinate Division Sustainment Support Battalions (DSSB). DSSBs consists of a Composite Supply Company (CSC), a Composite Truck Company (CTC), and a Support Maintenance Company (SMC).

The FSSPs are managed by the Petroleum Platoon under the Composite Supply Companies. CSCs do both water and fuel logistics, and the Petroleum Platoon is the fuel component of that "composite supply" mission. The Petroleum Platoon manages two 120k gallon FSSPs (light) and a single 300k gallon FSSP (medium).

Generally, fuel is piped in from offshore into storage tanks or 800k gallon FSSPs called the Tactical Petroleum Terminal (TPT). Storage tanks is used in developed theaters where local infrastructure exists for fuel storage. If it is a undeveloped theater, then the 800k FSSP acts as a substitute. Despite readily using existing infrastructure, the US army doesn't use local fuel supplies and prefers to ship it from overseas, from the continental United States. The pipe networks continues beyond the 800k FSSP into a 300k FSSPs where it is then trucked by the CSCs to the 120k FSSPs or another 300k FSSP.

A CSC can sustain three Brigade Combat Teams, and is not usually restricted to any specific unit, but rather any unit within its area of operations. BCTs have a organic Brigade Support Battalion that send trucks to the rear area to get fuel from FSSPs then bring them forward to company specific Logistics Release Points (LRP) where company commanders can get their vehicles refueled.

The 120k FSSP such as the one built here is not connected to the larger pipe network directly but is instead resupplied by fuel trucks. The receiving point has three connection point for filling up the tanks. The connection points all flow to a single main line via a series of T and/or Y junctions. The 120k FSSP is made of six 20,000 gallon collapsible tanks in which more T junctions separates the fuel into each bladder. 10,000 gallon tanks also exists. Fuel entering from the receiving point is stored in one of those collapsible tanks via a '350 gpm pump' and goes through a flow meter along the way. In some layout schematics, there is also a 'fuel additive injector' located between the pump and bladders. When refueling vehicles, a different '350 gpm pump' sucks the fuel out the tanks on the opposite side and passes it through to a T junction splitting it into two lines, each with a 'filter/separator' and a 'fuel sampling assembly' before recombining. A split occurs here with a recirculation hose directing fuel back into the bladders by rejoining ahead of the flow meter but after the first pump. The other hose goes through a second flow meter before splitting off to the various 'fueling stations'. Between all these assemblies and junctions, there are valves, usually of the 'gate' variety. But there could also be other types that is quicker to actuate or even a combination of both types as necessary. The entire system is laid atop a 'spill containment berm', which is essentially a glorified tarp with raised edges.
