Fueling the Business Chief Petroleum has been supplying Colorado Springs with fuel and lubricants for nearly 50 years with safety and reliability in mind. [ BY RUSS GAGER ] products in Colorado Springs and areas east to Peyton and Ellicott, Colo., and some locations south to Pueblo, Colo. Chief Petroleum’s half-century of reliability, quality and loyalty to its customers is a strong competitive advantage. That reputation is important when delivering a product like aviation fuel that must meet critical specifications. “You don’t want just anybody hauling jet fuel,” President Lisa Ziemer points out. “We’ve been doing it quite a while correctly and properly. We have a good reputation for that.” FUEL DELIVERIES One of the most important problems to avoid when delivering aviation fuel is product contamination, which if discovered can result in rejection of an entire tanker of fuel. To confirm the clarity of a shipment, a portion of it is drained into a white bucket for examination. Contamination problems can result when the prior load of a tanker hauling jet fuel was hauling gasoline. “We have a dedicated avgas trailer we keep in Denver that never hauls anything but avgas, so it’s never diesel-dirty,” Ziemer maintains. An estimated half of Chief Petroleum’s business is deliveries of diesel fuel in Family owned and managed, Chief Petroleum inspires loyalty in both its customers and employees by delivering on its promises with reliable quality fuel and lubricants delivered by experienced PROFILE drivers. Colorado Springs-based Chief Petroleum hauls 8,500-gallon tankers of jet fuel or avgas throughout Colorado, Nebraska, Kansas, Wyoming, Utah and sometimes New Mexico. The company also provides direct fueling and lubricant Chief Petroleum. www.chiefpetroleum.com | Headquarters: Colorado Springs, Colo.
