In the latest episode of “The Fueling Station” podcast, OPW’s “Pod-troleum Guys,” Ed Kammerer and Jonathan Stong, welcomed Scott Boorse, Director of Technical Programs & Industry Affairs for the Petroleum Equipment Institute (PEI) to the show. Their discussion revolved around the importance of ensuring safety in all aspects of retail fueling, with an emphasis on PEI’s current efforts to create a series of Recommended Practices dedicated strictly to safety measures, the first of which highlights ways to optimize fall protection at fueling facilities. In the end, maximizing safety means leaving the facility as safe when you leave as it was when you arrived, with OPW’s industry-leading fuel-storage and -dispensing equipment lending a hand in that endeavor.

One of the most significant additions to the product menus at retail fueling sites in the past 15 years has been Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), the use of which became mandated when the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency was looking for new and better ways to reduce the amount of sulfur-heavy emissions from diesel-powered trucks and automobiles and their harmful effects. In the latest edition of The Fueling Station Podcast, Ed Kammerer and Jonathan Stong of OPW Retail Fueling — the "Pod-troleum Guys" — welcome Dan Boyle, OPW-RF Product Manager - Underground, for a discussion on DEF's use and its challenging handling characteristics, which make selecting and deploying DEF-compatible dispensing equipment paramount in helping to ensure a safe, reliable, cost-effective and efficient DEF program.
