ESSAR Energy Transition’s EET Fuels (the trading name of Essar Oil, UK, Ltd), a leading force in the UK’s energy transition and aviation fuel supply, is pleased to announce the signing of agreements to supply jet fuel to two additional major UK airports, reports IANS.
Operating from the Stanlow Refinery in Ellesmere Port, EET Fuels is one of the UK’s largest producers of jet fuel, also supplying approximately 16 per cent of the nation’s road transport fuels and playing a pivotal role in the North West’s aviation industry. Deepak Maheshwari, Chief Executive Officer at EET Fuels, said, “This milestone underscores EET Fuels’ commitment to strengthening the UK’s aviation fuel network while advancing our energy transition strategy. By expanding our supply footprint to nine key airports, we are not only enhancing fuel security and reliability for our airline partners but also reinforcing our role as a leader in the UK’s journey towards a low-carbon future.”
Ellese Munnerley, Aviation Account Manager of EET Fuels, said, “We’re delighted to have secured two new airport customers. This expansion brings our EET Fuels supply network of UK airports to nine, reinforcing our commitment to delivering reliable, high-quality fuel solutions to our airline partners. It allows us to extend our network coverage to our valuable airline customers while the positioning of the airports also shows our ability to deliver a resilient fuel supply across the UK.”
This latest achievement builds on previous successes, including supply agreements with Manchester, Birmingham, London Stansted, Newcastle, Liverpool, Cardiff, and Leeds airports, bringing the company closer to its vision of a comprehensive and resilient UK aviation fuel network.
EET Fuels serves some of the most prominent names in global aviation — from short-haul trips to Europe to large international carriers, and some of the largest cargo carriers in the world. This expansion is in line with EET Fuels’ strategy to integrate across the value chain by placing refined jet molecules produced at its Stanlow refinery directly into the demand centres where these are consumed.
