Argus Consulting, Inc.

Scope Of Work

As  Port Authority  New York  New Jersey prepared for a new terminal at Newark's International Airport, Argus studied  best options for fueling aircraft.

Argus Consulting provided Stage 1 reports   designs for fueling infrastructure improvements as  Port Authority  New York  New Jersey was   planning stages for a replacement   existing Terminal A at Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) to accommodate  EWR Master Plan.  new Terminal A will replace three existing concourses at EWR  will include a new hydrant fuel loop  emergency fuel shutoff system.

One study covered proposed improvements needed to relocate  fueling infrastructure that falls within  footprint   proposed Terminal A. Specific improvements considered in  study included providing new fuel transmission lines from  Tank Farm to  existing concourses, replacement   existing Fuel Selection , replacement   aging Tank Farm controls infrastructure, new bulk storage tanks  significant improvements to  Tank Farm pumping systems. This comprehensive   included: developing pipe routes  profiles, pumping system design, review of  concerns, conceptual layouts for all new systems, hydraulic simulations for  pipe  pumping systems (layout   new EFSO)  cost estimating.

Argus also provided Stage 1 Report  30% design for  new Terminal A hydrant system.

This study required  determination   peak simultaneous fueling demand at  airport,  proposed routing   fuel distribution mains, valve vault configuration,  completion  a hydraulic analysis to size  piping, modifications required at  fuel farm   specific pump groups, modifications to existing truck racks  hydrant cart test stand, leak detection, and modification and upgrades to  existing  system.

A detailed, phased  approach was developed to minimize  impact to  airfield   to coordinate with phased   Terminal A. Argus was then retained for the 30% design for a new hydrant fuel distribution system  Emergency Fuel Shutoff System. This effort established  relevant codes, design criteria, materials  , piping alignment, details, system configuration  estimated  costs.
