February 17 - Fuel Service Day

44
The fuel service of the Russian Armed Forces is one of the relatively young rear services, it conducts its history since 17 February 1936, when the Commissar of Defense order was formed by the Fuel Service of the USSR Armed Forces.

February 17 - Fuel Service DayFor the first time, the Fuel Service proved the necessity of its existence during the fighting at Lake Hassan. Then, over a fortnight of fighting, the Soviet troops spent more than 8000 tons of fuel, and during the conflict on the Khalkin-Gol river, fuel consumption amounted to nearly 90000 thousand tons. The winter war with Finland required even more diligent work from the Fuel Service — during the Finnish campaign, the Soviet troops burned 215 thousand tons of diesel, gasoline and kerosene.

During the Great Patriotic War, the Fuel Service made a significant contribution to solving the problem of fuel supplies to blocked Leningrad, laying an 27-kilometer pipeline across the bottom of Lake Ladoga, through which from June 1942 to March 1943 a dozen tons of fuel were supplied to the besieged city. The breakthrough of the fuel isolation of Leningrad considerably brought closer the day of the removal of the general blockade from the city. In general, for the entire period of the war, more than 1,5 thousand people were awarded with government awards, which is up to half of the then officers of the USSR Fuel Service.

During the years of intense military-political confrontation with the West, the Fuel Service faced new challenges, their appearance was associated primarily with the emergence of fundamentally new means of delivery of nuclear weapons - ballistic missiles. Army and the fleet It took a large amount of liquid rocket fuel. The need for an effective uninterrupted supply of rocket fuel to the Armed Forces led to the beginning of intensive scientific research in the relevant field. In 1946, the SRI of fuels and lubricants was opened, and now it is the 25th State Research Institute of the RF Ministry of Defense.

Today, the Fuel Service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation includes support centers, a number of formations and parts of pipeline troops; gas stations; warehouses and bases of fuel and rocket fuel; repair plants and workshops; laboratories; supply units. The Ulyanovsk Higher Military Technical School trains officers for the Fuel Service.

      This is called "optimization"! This means that such units are not needed by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
      At this stage, the most important thing is that outsourcing does not eat the fuel and lubricants service as a food service. wassat

    In the Armed Forces there is a service that controls the fuel. She had the responsibility and honor, because she runs all the equipment. And on this frosty February day. On your holiday, we heartily congratulate you. Let the days of service rush into the distance not in vain. We wish you success and honor.

    It is possible, it all depends on the "error" in density and volume. A density in the quality passport; and a quality passport from VERKHOV.

      Well, of course they have tops. Only a certificate is issued at the first stage. After transportation, according to the temperature, the density can change. Then in the tank fleet it changes during the day. And as a rule, the vacation goes according to one control measurement made in the morning. Without constant monitoring without any risk goes to the side

    Happy professional holiday, men! good Eternal memory to those who drove the columns of nalivniks under the showers of bullets from dushmans in Afghanistan and bandits in Chechnya, for which even the "remboviks" received the respectful nickname "suicide bombers". soldier
    Thank you for the planes flying, the ships sailing, and the tanks not only traveling, but also jumping.
    It is a pity that by Order of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation No.1136 of 12.07.2011, the Ulyanovsk Higher Military Technical School (Military Institute) was liquidated 01.10.2011.
    The training of specialists has been stopped. Those who are trained in Volsk no longer have anything to do with the SG, because they graduate with the qualification "Management".

    All combustors with a holiday !!!
    And the author of the article probably does not know that there is no longer a school (UVVTU), Mr. Serdyukov destroyed it (like many of our legendary forges of officer personnel) ...
    Also, for some reason the author of the article forgot about the war in Afghanistan, where the specialists of the fuel service and pipeline troops performed simply heroic deeds, and even a documentary film "Afghanistan. Artery of Life" was made about this.
    It is unfortunate that now the fuel service is becoming less and less, outsourcing is gradually replacing it ... For some reason, no one is thinking about tomorrow, but suddenly there is a war, someone will then bring fuel to the troops and pull the pipe ....

    During the years of World War II, the Armed Forces consumed 16,4 million tons of fuel.

    The fuel service infrastructure is based on its warehouses and bases of central, district, naval submission, which are located throughout Russia. The area they occupy is about 15 thousand hectares. In addition, there are military and airfield depots for the maintenance of military fuel reserves. The annual fuel turnover through the system of central, district, naval and army warehouses is more than 8 million tons.
    The existing pipeline connections, military units and units have the ability to lay field trunk pipelines for the supply of fuel with a total length of over 16 thousand km.

    Happy Holidays!

    Here it is, the legendary forge of Fuel Service specialists!
    Graduates received the qualification "engineer" in the following specialties:

    1. Design, construction and operation of gas and oil pipelines and gas and oil storage facilities;
    2. Chemical technology of natural energy and carbon materials;
    At various times, there were also specialties "Management" and "Moral and psychological support of the troops."
    A huge and well-functioning field educational and material base, computer classes, a smart chemical laboratory - is it a joke - the huge five-story educational building was exclusively one laboratory. Full analyzes of all types of fuels and lubricants and rocket fuel were carried out.
    Now there is nothing ...
