About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Energy awarded contract SPE602-26-P-0475 to Vitol Aviation Co. on a limited-source basis for delivery of Aviation Turbine Fuel (JA1) with static dissipator additive via FOB Origin pipeline to Defense Fuel Support Point Central European Pipeline System (DFSP CEPS), with an estimated value of $22,665,636.
The justification cites unusual and compelling urgency. DLA Energy conducted a request for information on June 2, 2026 to identify vendors maintaining aviation fuel stocks at the CEPS system, followed by a request for quote on June 3, 2026. Vitol confirmed access to the CEPS pipeline and ability to provide the total volume, and quoted the lowest offered price among respondents. The contracting officer determined the anticipated cost is fair and reasonable based on comparison with proposed prices received and current market prices obtained through market research per FAR 15.404-1(b). Performance period extends from the award date (June 5, 2026) through a redacted completion date. The justification was published after award per FAR 6.103-2(d) due to the unusual and compelling nature of the requirement. Future fuel requirements for DFSP CEPS will utilize annual contracts awarded through full and open competition under the Atlantic/Europe/Mediterranean (AEM) Program.
