Some of my colleagues have told me some interesting tales around fuel swapping between parties in some interesting regions around the Middle East. One operator I worked for in Asia had a fuel contamination event. That was the day that practice ceased forever. You don’t want to be the fall guy when things go wrong, expensive and time consuming fix if you get stuck with contaminated tanks.
