| Abstract | The Army maintains the capability to employ temporary petroleum pipelines. With the fiscal year (FY) 08–13 program objective memorandum (POM) force, the Army proposes to retain two Active and twelve Reserve Petroleum Pipeline and Terminal Operating (PPTO) companies. There is the potential to convert up to four of the PPTO companies to a unit design centered on the in-development Rapidly Installed Fuel Transfer System (RIFTS) technology, with the remaining companies retaining the existing Inland Petroleum Distribution System (IPDS) system. |
