Essar Oil (UK) Limited, which owns and operates the Stanlow
Manufacturing Complex at Ellesmere Port, the UK, announced on Wednesday
that it has begun supplying jet fuel directly to airlines at the Cardiff
Airport, with new deals having already been secured with various
carriers that operate flights from the Wales facility.
Essar's
aviation fuel business has grown lately, with direct supply arrangements
now in place with carriers at five major airports across the UK --
Manchester, Birmingham, London Stansted, Leeds-Bradford and Cardiff.
Adam
Brayne, Aviation and Business Development Manager at Essar, said,
"Adding Cardiff Airport to our UK network is a further chapter in our
growth story, as Essar continues to support major airlines through what
we hope will be a recovery period for the sector. We look forward to a
successful partnership with the airport and are delighted to have
already secured direct business with a number of key airline customers
there."
David Walters, Chief Financial Officer of Cardiff
Airport, added: "We have been working hard to ensure suitable choice is
available to our airline partners at Cardiff Airport, and we are very
pleased that Essar has agreed to work with us as a new long-term fuel
partner. We really look forward to working closely with the company, as
we welcome more flights and airlines back to Cardiff."
Essar Oil UK is a UK-focused downstream energy company whose main asset is the Stanlow Manufacturing Complex.
Stanlow
annually produces over 16 per cent of the UK's road transport fuels.
Since acquiring Stanlow in 2011, Essar has invested $1 billion in margin
improvement and other efficiency initiatives to ensure the refinery
remains competitive in a rapidly changing market.
