In Romania, Romania Insider reported that aircrafts at Cluj-Napoca International Airport can use sustainable aviation fuel provided by OMV Petrom. The planes taking off from Cluj Airport are fueled with a blend of 2% SAF, thereby reducing their environmental impact. Nearly 1,800 flights were operated in January and February using this fuel, covering all departures from the airport, according to OMV Petrom. “SAF is produced from renewable raw materials such as used oils and animal fats, which are transformed using innovative technologies into fuels with properties similar to conventional jet fuel,” said Radu Căprău, a member of OMV Petrom’s management board responsible for refining and marketing activities. OMV Petrom will start producing SAF in Romania at the Petrobrazi refinery in 2028.
