About this award

The Defense Logistics Agency Energy, a component of the Department of Defense, awarded a delivery order valued at $10.7M to Petromax Refining Company LLC for the supply of military-specification aviation turbine fuel (contract number 8511728071). The award, issued on October 29, 2025, is structured as a fixed-price contract with economic price adjustment provisions to account for fuel market volatility. Petromax, a Houston-based SBA-certified HUBZone small business, will perform all work from its primary refining and distribution facility in Houston, Texas, with fuel delivery scheduled through November 15, 2025. This delivery order was issued without a small business set-aside designation, though the contractor's HUBZone certification provides inherent small business status.

This delivery order is issued under one of three active indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts that Petromax maintains with DLA Energy, specifically the April 2025 HUBZone set-aside IDIQ vehicle with a $679.2M ceiling extending through March 31, 2026. Petromax has emerged as a critical supplier for the Department of Defense, having facilitated the delivery of approximately 1.4 billion gallons of military-specification jet fuels, including JP-5 and JP-8 variants, to over 250 DoD installations worldwide since 2021. The contractor's portfolio of IDIQ contracts with DLA Energy collectively authorizes approximately 1.4 billion gallons of aviation turbine fuel procurement and represents the primary vehicles through which DLA Energy ensures responsive fuel supply to support global military aviation operations.
