Flyer Jet Fuel Is A Type Of Aviation Fuel Designed For Use In Aircraft Powered By Gas
1. JP 54 Jet fuel is a type of aviation fuel designed for use in aircraft powered by gas-turbine engines. It
is clear to straw-colored in appearance. The most commonly used fuels for commercial aviation are Jet
A and Jet A-1 which are produced to a standardized international specification. JP54 is the acronym for
the jet fuel: Fungible Aviation Kerosene Colonial Pipeline Grade 54 (JP54 compares to Jet A-1 as
outlined by the UK Ministry of Defense). The only other jet fuel commonly used in civilian turbine-
engine powered aviation is Jet B, which is used for its enhanced cold-weather performance.
Jet fuel is a mixture of a large number of different hydrocarbons. The range of their sizes (molecular
weights or carbon numbers) is restricted by the requirements for the product, for example, freezing
point or smoke point.
Global Jet Fuel Demand
Looking at jet fuel demand on a longer-term basis, three conclusions can be drawn:
• Global jet fuel demand will grow at a slower pace than air traffic until at least 2020. Continuous
efforts by air transport industries will improve efficiency through engine and airframe design, higher
load factors, and improved operations. Industry estimates indicate that jet fuel demand will increase
by one third between now and 2020, with a 3 percent annual growth rate.
• Global jet fuel production capacity will remain sufficient. Regional imbalances will not only develop
and generate a larger global jet fuel trading market, but also may add to security of energy supply
concerns for the main importing markets, Europe and North America.
• Jet fuel will maintain a price premium to crude higher than historical values. Because synthetic jet
fuel is still in the research stage, jet fuel requirements will continue to compete with diesel in the
same middle distillates refinery cut. Refiners worldwide will be challenged by a rate of demand growth
that is higher for diesel than for other fuels, sustaining jet fuel's relative premium to crude.
In simple terms, JP 54 is a term “originated” by the largest allocation holder of all times, “JP MORGAN”.
Over 60 years ago a “secret” major stake was invested into the USSR into distillate fuels. Birth of JP aviation. This fact is
unpublished because of the implication$.
Now, enter other major corporations into the distillate industry such as Exxon, Shell, Chevron and the Name “JP” would be like
Pepsi calling there soda a Coke. Therefore the birth of JET and JET “A”. The variance of the Jet Fuel blends is mainly “Freezing
Points”. Hence a MIG or F18 must have higher freezing point for higher altitude flights, which is an advanced JP called “8?.
