USD(A&S)

SUBJECT: DoD Management Policy for Energy Commodities and Related Services

References: See Enclosure 1

1. PURPOSE. This instruction:

a. Reissues DoD Directive (DoDD) 4140.25 (Reference (a)) as a DoD instruction (DoDI) in accordance with the authority in DoDD 5134.01 (Reference (b)).

b. Establishes policy, assigns responsibilities, and provides procedures for sizing, acquiring, and managing petroleum operating stocks (OS) and pre-positioned war reserve stocks (PWRS).

c. Establishes policy, assigns responsibilities, and provides guidance for the procurement of alternative fuels.

2. APPLICABILITY. This instruction applies to OSD, the Military Departments, the Office of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Joint Staff, the Combatant Commands, the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Defense, the Defense Agencies, the DoD Field Activities, and all other organizational entities within the DoD (referred to collectively in this instruction as the “DoD Components”).

3. POLICY. It is DoD policy that:

a. DoD energy commodities and related services support the full range of military operations.

b. Commercial and host-nation sources of supply are used to the maximum extent to meet peacetime and wartime requirements.

c. Joint adaptive planning and execution, requirements, and acquisition processes minimize the types of fuel required to increase standardization, flexibility, and interoperability.

DoDI 4140.25, June 25, 2015

Change 3, 12/31/2019 2

d. Alternative fuels are obtained using the DoD’s standard fuel procurement programs.

Alternative fuels for operational purposes are purchased when cost-competitive with traditional fuels and when qualified as compatible with existing equipment and infrastructure.

e. Fuel systems are qualified to use available commercial-type fuels, including alternative fuels.

f. Bulk petroleum inventories are managed consistent with the needs of U.S. military forces worldwide to achieve the greatest practical flexibility, sustainment of forces, and minimization of DoD expenses.

g. PWRS are designated as starter or swing stocks, or both, in accordance with DoDI

3110.06 (Reference (c)). Petroleum war reserve requirements (PWRRs) are used as the basis for PWRS once resupply sources are established for an executed operation plan.

h. Government-owned energy commodity infrastructure is minimized through use of commercial capabilities and privatization, except when such infrastructure is needed for unique security reasons or when privatization is uneconomical or impractical.

4. RESPONSIBILITIES. See Enclosure 2.

5. RELEASABILITY. Cleared for public release. This instruction is available on the Directives Division Website at https://www.esd.whs.mil/DD/.

6. SUMMARY OF CHANGE 3. This change is administrative and updates references and organizational symbols and realigns responsibilities within the Office of the Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment to reflect the reorganization of the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics, pursuant to the July 13, 2018 Deputy Secretary of Defense Memorandum (Reference (d)).
