The BOS Airline Fuel Committee hired Argus Consulting to conduct a Peer and Constructability Review of a major aircraft hydrant fueling system expansion project proposed at Boston-Logan International Airport.

Fuel Distribution System
The project task was to review and evaluate the integration of a new fuel distribution piping system connecting the fuel storage facilities to multiple aircraft hydrant fueling systems. This system served 70-75 aircraft gate positions with flow rates of 12,000-16,000 gpm. Sub systems included: a leak detection system, emergency fuel shut-off systems and fuel isolation systems.

Other Assignments
In addition to this assignment, Argus has also performed multiple design projects to add new or modify existing hydrant system gate positions for American, Delta, Northwest, United and U.S. Airways. These projects required careful planning and construction coordination to minimize gate closure periods.
