The US Defense Energy Support Center (DESC) has awarded four fuel-management contracts worth $8.6 million over five years to a joint venture led by Agility Defense and Government Services (DGS), Alexandra VA.
The joint venture, AFH Fuel Services LLC, will operate, maintain, secure and provide safety and environmental protection for aviation and ground bulk fuel storage operations on Air Force (USAF) installations at Andersen Air Force Base, Guam; Kadena Air Base, Okinawa, Japan; Misawa Air Base, Misawa City, Japan; and Osan Air Base, South Korea.

DESC, a unit of the Defense Logistics Agency, purchases and manages energy supplies for the Department of Defense. This week’s awards follow the announcement by DESC in June that AFH Fuels Services won three European fuel-management storage contracts worth $7.7 million over five years. Those awards were for Ramstein Air Base, Germany; Lajes Field, Azores, Portugal; and Incirlik Air Base, Turkey.
