Support a field refuelling task
You are a Storeperson and Fuel Operator in Logistics and Warehousing.
What has happened
The regional training squadron is running an exercise on Thursday and has asked for field refuelling of vehicles from drum stock at a temporary refuelling point. Bec Halloran leads the two person crew and you are the second operator. In August a fuel hose coupling released under pressure during a test, which led to a batch of hoses being condemned and the hose test procedure being reviewed, so hose testing before departure is being watched closely. The task includes preparing the equipment, testing hoses, setting up the refuelling point with spill containment and fire fighting equipment, refuelling vehicles safely and recording every refuel and every check.
Deliverables
- Hose test record
- Equipment check record

Evidence guide
Look for hoses tested and recorded before departure with any failure withdrawn, a complete equipment check, a refuelling log that accounts for every litre issued against stock, the spill reported the same day as an incident rather than ignored, and an end of task report that reconciles stock. Observe the student following crew instructions and stopping the task when the vehicle moved.
