Etymology: "Fuelers" is simply the plural of "fueler," which is formed from "fuel" plus the suffix "-er," the common English ending that marks a person or device that performs an action. Here it turns "fuel," the material that powers engines and furnaces, into a word for the people who supply it. Readers meeting the term in a business or industry context will find it a plain, transparent formation: someone who fuels, or more specifically, someone whose work is fueling.

Synonyms: refuelers
