Neste and World Fuel Services have announced an extension of their existing relationship with a new five-year agreement that will see an expansion of the current availability of Neste-supplied sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) at more than 100 airports across World Fuel’s UK and European network.
The extended agreement, which will aid World Fuel’s ability to both secure SAF supply and comply with regulatory requirements (including the ReFuelEU Aviation Regulation and the UK SAF mandate), will see SAF made available to World Fuel’s commercial, business and general aviation customers.
Building on an existing, long-standing collaboration between the companies; the agreement will combine World Fuel’s established aviation fuel supply distribution and infrastructure capabilities with Neste’s established SAF production and supply capabilities – which includes Neste’s renewable fuels refinery in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
Duncan Storey, World Fuel’s Senior Vice President, EMEA said:By combining our extensive European network with Neste’s growing SAF production, we are strengthening the supply foundation our customers rely on as regulatory requirements accelerate across the region. This agreement enhances our ability to deliver consistent, scalable access to SAF where it’s needed most.
Carl Nyberg, Senior Vice President, Commercial, Renewable Products at Neste, said:We are excited to extend the relationship with World Fuel Services. These kinds of collaborations are crucial to supporting the aviation industry in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and meeting SAF mandates, such as the ReFuelEU Aviation Regulation. As Neste is scaling its SAF production capability from 1.5 to 2.2 million tons per annum in 2027, leveraging World Fuel’s extensive network of airports in Europe will increase the availability and flexibility of SAF supply for airlines.
