API RP 1543:2009 pdf download.Documentation,Monitoring and Laboratory Testing of Aviation Fuel During Shipment from Refinery to Airport.
The contamination by additives m non-aviation products that precede aviation fuel shipment can have a profound effect on the properties of aviation fuel resulting in product that is off specification and unsuitable for use. Where additives are used W non-aviation product shipments leading aviation products, a risk based review of controls in place shall be carefully considered to prevent inadvertent mixing with aviation fuels, When new additives are to be used in non-aviation fuels an MOC process shall be used to determine any additional safeguards needed to preserve the aviation fuels dunng shipment. Pipeline corrosion inhibitors shall not be added to aviation fuels. If Incoming grades of non-aviation product contains DRA. the DRA injection shall be stopped two hours before and not resumed until two hours after the expected aviation grade fuel has passed the injection pelnt
The time product is allowed to remain ‘static in the pipeline should be minimized to avoid the increased propensity for mixing at interlace boundaries under no-flow conditions (see API 1595 for additional guidance on pipeline operations).
For all pipeline shipments, the batch number assigned by the pipeline shall be cross-referenced on the delivery document (DO) to the batch number from the original quality documentation and/or release certificate, The quality documentation from the mjection point (see 6.1 and corresponding pipeline DD) should be forwarded directly to the receiving installation by the pipeline operator.
Moving product In and out of intermediate tankage in a pipeline delivery system before arriving at the designated receiving installation can mix multiple batches, Where possible. this should be avoided so as to prevent commingling and loss of batch identity.
6.3.2 Fungible Pipeline Systems
A lungible batch’ is defined as a batch of product meetmg the pipeline operators established specifications, which Is commingled with other quantities of product meeting the same specification, In this case, tracing batches back to original injection point RQCs, COAs or recertification certificates is not possthle.
Multipcoduct fungible pipeline systems are operated in a manner that prevents traceability of individual shipments. However, the principles regarding product movements still apply and should be used whether the pipeline is operated as a fungible or segregated system.
For all plpetlie shipments, the batch number assigned by the pipeune shall be cross-referenced on the DD to the batch number from the original quality documentation and/or release certificate.
The quality documentation from the mjectlon point (see 6.1 and corresponding pipeline DO) shaM be kept on file by the pipehne operator but there is no need to forward on to the receiving terminals or airports.
