Buyo Ekika Gas Co., LTD. is a Japanese for-profit corporation and subsidiary of Buyo Gas Co., Ltd. that specializes in providing propane gas supply and delivery services to U.S. military installations throughout the Pacific region. The company has maintained active federal contractor status since December 2003 and is registered to receive federal awards through SAM.gov, with its current registration set to expire on August 27, 2026. As a critical energy service provider, Buyo Ekika Gas Co., LTD. supports ongoing utility infrastructure requirements for U.S. Air Force operations in Japan, particularly at major installations in the region.

Since 2021, Buyo Ekika Gas Co., LTD. has received nine firm fixed price delivery orders from the U.S. Department of the Air Force Pacific Air Forces for propane gas supply and delivery services. These delivery orders have ranged in value from approximately $25,000 to $52,000, with award dates occurring on a semi-annual basis, typically on April 1 and October 1 of each year. All delivery orders have been issued without small business set-aside designations and have consistently targeted propane gas supply for Yokota Air Base and Tama Service Annex in Japan. The most recent delivery orders, awarded on April 1, 2025 ($41,506.47) and October 1, 2024 ($39,581.61), reflect the company's ongoing role as the prime contractor furnishing energy services directly to support U.S. military operations.

Buyo Ekika Gas Co., LTD. holds one active Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) contract with the U.S. Department of the Air Force Pacific Air Forces, awarded on December 1, 2023, with a ceiling value of $194,855.84 and a performance period through November 30, 2026. Under this single-award IDV, the company is obligated to furnish an estimated annual quantity of 41,493 cubic meters of propane cylinders and 117,048 cubic meters of bulk propane to support ongoing energy needs at Yokota Air Base and Tama Service Annex.
