Just beyond the energy and excitement of Miami lies Coconut Grove, a tropical paradise overlooking the tranquil waters and colorful harbor of South Florida’s Biscayne Bay.

The upgrade to the existing +50 slip marina was just a part of the multi million dollar renovation to the property. Price was an important issue, but dealing with a small contractor with our experience and knowledge in this specialized field alleviated at least one worry for the client during this large project.

Communication and input with the owners engineer provided the ground work for the implantation of the state of the art site specific marine fueling system. The installation of one (1) compartmented 24,000 gallon Eultron double wall storage tank system provide an abundance of storage with a financial savings to the client. The tank holds 12,000 gallons diesel, 8000 gallons low grade gasoline, and 4000 gallons high octane gasoline.

FePetro variable speed submersible pumps were installed in each fuel storage compartment with mechanical leak detectors. Environ 2” and 3” Geoflex M pipe was chosen to supply the fuel to our dispensing system. Our design team had the vision and knowledge to engineer a fueling system that would include eight (8) fueling positions with two diesel positions with +35 gpm. One (1) PMC single product dual hose and three (3) PMC dual product dual hose dispensers were chosen for fuel delivery.

A Veeder root TLS -350 will handle all compliance monitoring. The client also requested that all sales be authorized and recorded at one single area. Our experience told us that the most reliable and accurate system for this application would be the installation of a TMS 800F Plus.

As with all our projects; working with a small full service marine fuel contractor enabled the client to influence decisions, reduce construction costs, and meet all required deadlines; for a fuel facility that stands alone amidst “The Grove.”
