Yesterday I faxed a copy of Colonial Pipeline's specifications for fungible
low sulfur diesel fuel (74 grade) to Mark Breese. That spec sheet is
indicative of the specs for low sulfur diesel in Florida. It must be
remembered that Florida has no refineries nor product pipelines and receives
their fuel via barges and vessels from domestic and international refineries
and terminals. Will forward Colonial jet fuel (54 grade) specs.

Doug,

Attached is the (long-awaited) spec for the 200K gallons of low-sulphur #2
Fuel Oil to partially refill the tank at the Ft. Pierce facility in Florida.
As the attached note describes, the final spec is a result of the combined
spec requirements by the environmental permit, MHI (Mitsubishi), and
Engineering.

We currently believe that some of these specs may be more stringent than what
is commercially available. In the event that some of these specs are too
stringent, we would like you to: 1) identify which specs are not reasonably
attainable, and 2) suggest what value of these specs are attainable. Your
feedback will be shared with the appropriate parties and, assuming there are
spec change recommendations, these parties will determine how best to
proceed.

Please note that the first attached note requests than any bids we get
contain info on density, heating value, and trace contaminants.
Additionally, the second attached note references getting multiple bids for
different specs. I suggest that, for now, we resolve the spec issue
internally as described above and then we obtain quotes. If you have any
other suggestions on how best to proceed, your input is welcome.

Your assistance in this matter is, and has been, greatly appreciated.


Thanks,

Charlie Weldon

Charles,

Attached below is the fuel oil specification. Our Engineering group has
reviewed all Vendor and Air Permit requirements, and the sheet labeled "Fuel
Oil Spec" is the fuel oil specification. The sheet labeled "Comparison
Specs" is the other data you requested for comparison. When using the fuel
oil specification to purchase fuel, please have the vendors provide the
following information:

Density at reference temperature
Heating Values at reference temperature
Maximum trace contaminant limits:
chromium
arsenic
siloxenes
copper corrosivity
cetane index
cetane number

Thank you,

Matt

Matt-

I talked with Bill Fox and Doug Ottens concerning the fuel spec. In order
for MHI to meet the particulate emissions, we must provide a fuel oil with no
ash. Additionally, vanadium is a catalyst poison, so to meet the CMI needs,
I reduced the vanadium.

I am attaching a revised fuel oil spec matrix, which has four fuel specs
included. The first column meets the minimum requirements of MHI & CMI. The
second column holds the ash at the low value, but allows the vanadium to
increase. The third column holds the low vanadium value, but allows the ash
to increase. The last column allow both the ash and vanadium to increase.

ENA will need to get bids for column 1 and may want to solicit bids for
column 2, 3, & 4 for economic comparison purposes.
