distribution and storage system network. Diesel fuel distribution starts with production of fuel at the refinery and includes all aspects of storage and delivery until the fuel is ultimately burned in an engine. Once produced at the refinery, diesel fuel is usually maintained in temporary storage on site until it is put into a pipeline for transport.
