Military and naval fuel handling

Courage. Competence. Connectivity.

We supply fuel, water and training systems to navies, air forces and armies, and have supported military refuelling programmes since 1995. Our systems are built to military and class standards and supported through their service life.

At sea

Helicopter refuelling

Complete shipboard helicopter refuelling systems for frigates, patrol vessels, tankers and support ships.

HIFR

Our own assembly for refuelling a hovering helicopter, compliant with STANAG 3847, with an underwing nozzle or a dedicated deck plug connection.

Fuel treatment

Fuel transfer and purification packages, and marine purifiers for fuel and lubricating oil.

In the air

Support for air-to-air refuelling and tanker programmes. Aircraft refuelling dispensers, refuellers and bulk fuel installations for air bases.

Air-to-air refuelling support

  • First-level (on aircraft) and second-level technical support
  • Maintenance and diagnostic support
  • Modification and upgrade programmes
  • In-country custodian of the complete documentation set
  • Tracking of parts and of aircraft and pod duty cycles
  • AOG help desk
  • Local warehousing and logistics for high-attrition and repair items

On the ground

Refuelling modules

Custom refuelling modules, supplied with or without a prime mover. Compact, plug-and-play and compatible with a wide range of vehicles, so they ship easily to remote locations and need few connections on arrival.

Deployable water and fuel modules

Mission modules on a 20-foot ISO-compatible frame, carried and placed by a hook-lift truck. They work on the vehicle or standing alone in the field, storing, dispensing and bulk-transferring water or fuel.

Transportable fuel tanks

Certified jet fuel tanks that can be moved by road, sea or air to a forward base.

At a glance

Ship systems

Integrated platform management systems for monitoring and controlling a ship’s machinery, with aftermarket support. Helicopter visual landing aids.

Training

Damage control training units, firefighting training simulators and rescue training simulators that put crews through flooding, fire and escape drills on dry land.

Local industry

We work within national industry programmes to build local content and transfer technology.

Naval service centre

Our service centre in Lumut supports ship integrated platform management systems through their life, and has carried out refit work on frigate sensors, piping and valves. It works under an ISO 9001 quality management system that tracks every system, valve service and refit job.
