Fuel Inspection | Life Below Zero

Winners not waiting on me to be ready. It's here. What I need to do is get all my jet fuel barrels, get them over to the fuel site to get filled, get as many pallets as I can, and get those over by my heat tank. I need to get it where it needs to live for the winter to make it the easiest, closest for me when the conditions are brutally cold and brutally dark.

It's gonna take a quick look at my barrels. Oh, what a project for barrels! Go on a pallet in order for me to have enough fuel for the entire winter. That's 48 barrels I have to individually look at. Each barrel, say yes or no to it, see if they're empty. If they're not, verify what's in it, check it out, make sure there's no holes. Even a pinhole leak—it's a protected ecosystem; you can't leak fuel out all over—it’s just not the way it's done.

So, I have to visually inspect each barrel. This is a no—bad ones are over here. Why are they bad? Well, this one has a hole in it. This one's beat up really dang bad, looks like it's been that way for a while. Like, here's a ding, but it's not a hole.

But if I need 48 barrels, I've got to get 48 inspections. You know, I'm getting colder. Am I well below zero? No, but now is the time to get everything where it needs to be. I have to continue my process on getting the barrels where they need to live because overnight I can drop below zero. Within a couple of weeks, I'm gonna be dark.

I got 48 that are free of holes, free of things that'll compromise the integrity of the barrel. The next step for me though—for this, you have to work, start, pump, and feel.
