About this file
This document is a Turbine Fuel, Aviation (JP8) specification from the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy. It outlines the requirements for JP8 fuel deliveries, including conformance to MIL-DTL-83133K, testing and workmanship criteria, and additive requirements. Specific regional environmental and location requirements are also detailed, such as sulfur content limitations for Rocky Mountain/West deliveries and relaxed total acid number for Alaska. The document covers requirements for line injection of additives and provides additional specifications for deliveries to the ATL/EUR/MED region. This specification supports a related pre-solicitation for JP8 fuel with additives in the PACOM region, which is seeking information on commercially available fuel sources, transportation modes, and lead/delivery times.

DISTRIBUTION STATEMENT – A: APPROVED FOR PUBLIC RELEASE. DISTRIBUTION IS UNLIMITED
C16.64-1 TURBINE FUEL, AVIATION (JP8) (INLAND EAST GULF/OFFSHORE) (ROCKY
MOUNTAIN/WEST) (WESTPAC) (ATL/EUR/MED) (PC&S) (DLA OCT ENERGY 2022)
NATIONAL STOCK NUMBER PRODUCT NOMENCLATURE DLA ENERGY PRODUCT CODE
9130-01-031-5816 Turbine Fuel, Aviation JP8
Aviation Turbine Fuel (JP8) shall conform to MIL-DTL-83133K, dated July 18, 2018 Supplies delivered under this contract shall conform to all Federal, State, and local environmental requirements applicable to the geographic location of the receiving activity on the date of delivery. This includes delivery of fuel and documentation in a manner consistent with any existing or after-imposed Title V (Clean Air Act) Permits. The list of such requirements contained in this contract is not intended to be a complete list, and the Contractor shall be responsible for determining the existence of all such requirements. Selected regional environmental requirements are highlighted in the SPECIFICATIONS (CONT’D) clause. In the event that a Federal, State, or local environmental requirement is more stringent than a fuel specification contained in this contract, the Contractor shall deliver product that complies with the more stringent fuel specification. Product that fails to meet the more stringent fuel specification will be considered to be a nonconforming supply.
Product(s) to be supplied shall fully meet the requirements of the applicable specification(s) as cited above. In the event that compliance with the more stringent fuel specification causes the contractor to incur additional costs, the contractor may request an equitable adjustment
(a) INCIDENTAL CONTAMINANTS. Particulate Matter and Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) content shall not exceed the limits outlined in Table IV of MIL-DTL-83133K dated July 18, 2018.
(b) SPECIFICATION MODIFICATIONS. Aviation Turbine Fuel (JP8) shall conform to MIL-DTL-83133K, dated July 18, 2018, modified as follows:
(1) TESTING
(i) FILTRATION TIME TESTING. For filtration time testing round upwards when reporting the filtration time, in minutes. For example, a filtration time of 10 minutes, 18 seconds, would be reported as 11 minutes.
(ii) MICROSEPAROMETER (MSEP) RATING LIMITS. See MIL-DTL-83133K, dated July 18, 2018, Table 1, Note 15 for MSEP test method selection criteria.
(A) Prior to initial production under this contract, the Contractor shall elect, on a one-time basis, which MSEP limit will be met for the balance of the contract. If the Contractor introduces fuel system icing inhibitor (FSII), corrosion inhibitor/lubricity improver (CI/LI), and/or static dissipater additive (SDA) after verification of product conformance with the MSEP requirement, the product is not required to meet a fixed limit on subsequent MSEP tests.
(B) If the Contractor elects to verify conformance with the MSEP requirement on a sample of product that does not contain FSII and CI/LI, an additional MSEP test shall be performed on a hand blend containing aviation turbine fuel, FSII, CI/LI, and antioxidant (AO) (AO only if required). The FSII shall be included in this hand blend at a concentration of 0.07 to 0.10 volume percent and the amount of the CI/LI included shall be within the concentration range specified in QPL-25017. The additional MSEP result of this hand blend is a REPORT ONLY requirement and shall be recorded corresponding to item 750X on the Standardized Report Form (see Attachment ). This result shall be recorded with an asterisk next to it, and with a footnote below, stating, “*MSEP result is a ‘Report Only’ requirement.
Original result of (fill in actual result) on product containing the following additives:
(fill in combination of additives).”
(iii) WORKMANSHIP. The workmanship criteria in MIL-DTL-83133K, dated July 18, 2018, paragraph 3.5, is revised to read, “At the custody transfer point, the finished fuel shall be clear and bright and visually free from undissolved water and particulate matter in accordance with the latest revisions of the approved test methods. ASTM D4176 or ASTM D6986, latest versions, may be used. In case of dispute as determined by sample results taken from the custody transfer point, the fuel shall be clear and bright at 21 degrees Celsius (°C) (70 degrees Fahrenheit [°F]) and shall contain no more than 1.0 mg/L of particulate matter. The sample in dispute shall be taken into an area where the sample is permitted to slowly equilibrate to 21°C (70°F); this shall apply to either D4176 or D6986.”
(A) ASTM D6986, latest revision, shall be the referee test method, see requirements, as drafted, in MIL-DTL- 83133K, dated July 18, 2018, section 3.5.
(B) For the latest revision of ASTM D 4176, Procedure 2, with a result of Rating 1, maximum. If the sample fails ASTM D4176 only because it contains visible particulate matter but meets the particulate matter requirements of 1.0 mg/L maximum as stated in MIL-DTL-83133K, Table IV, the workmanship

criteria is met.
(2) SPECIAL LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
(i) Rocky Mountain/West. Aviation fuel movement via the Chevron Pipeline (Utah, Idaho, or Washington state entry points) shall be limited to total sulfur content of 0.15 mass percent, maximum.
(ii) Alaska. For fuels refined in Alaska and delivered to Alaska locations, the total acid number shall be relaxed to
0.020 mg KOH/g maximum.
(c) ADDITIVES. Additives are required for deliveries of JP8 per MIL-DTL-83133K, dated July 18, 2018, unless addition is excluded by specific solicitation line item, applicable contract clause, or another contractual requirement.
(1) The CI/LI additive(s) used shall be of the type and concentration cited in QPL-25017. To locate this information: (1) Go to the Acquisition Streamlining and Standardization Information System (ASSIST) Quick Search website (URL http://quicksearch.dla.mil/), (2) type "QPL-25017" in the Document ID field, press the Search button, (3) click the QPL- 25017 search result under Document ID, (4) click the "Qualification" link under Overview [or the "View QPD data" link under Revision History], and (5) click the “MIL-PRF- 25017 CATEGORY 1” link under Govt Designation. The concentration range for each additive is listed under the “Source Notes” link under the far-right column of the table.
(2) Metal deactivator additive (MDA) shall not be used in JP8 unless the Contractor has obtained written consent from the Contracting Officer.
(3) The requirement for SDA (see MIL-DTL-83133K, dated July 18, 2018, paragraph 3.3.3 and fuel electrical conductivity requirement in Table I) shall not apply unless stated otherwise in the Schedule. Line injection of additives (FSII, CI/LI, and SDA) from shipping tank to delivery conveyance is permitted under the following conditions:
(i) A laboratory hand blend containing the required additives and aviation turbine fuel shall be tested to verify compliance with the specification.
(ii) Additives shall be proportionately injected throughout the entire loading process to ensure the additive is homogeneously blended into the product. The Contractor shall maintain records evidencing the homogeneous blending of all line-injected additives. Such records shall include meter or tank gauge readings or test results taken at intervals to provide confidence in the injection process.
(iii) When FSII is line injected, additive concentration shall be verified based on a representative sample from each shipping conveyance.
(iv) When SDA is line-injected, and insufficient time is available for the fuel to reach equilibrium before departure of the shipping conveyance, the Contractor shall verify conductivity level on a representative sample from each shipping conveyance. The receiving activity will measure the conductivity and advise DLA Energy if it does not meet the specification requirements.
(4) SPECIAL LOCATION REQUIREMENTS (ATL/EUR/MED ONLY)
(i) For deliveries to La Spezia, Italy, the CI/LI shall be 3.5 g/m3 above the minimum effective concentration as identified in QPL-25017. See paragraph (c)(1) above.
