In India, BioEnergy Times reported that SOCAR Türkiye, a subsidiary of the State Oil Company of the Azerbaijani Republic, has signed an agreement with Turkish Airlines to expand cooperation into the production and use of sustainable aviation fuel.
The agreement builds on the companies’ existing partnership in conventional aviation fuel supply and will now include SAF, according to the report.
“We are putting our sustainability commitments into practice with real projects in Türkiye,” the company said in a statement. “With the production capacity of our STAR Refinery, advanced processing technologies, and strong R&D, we are well positioned to compete in SAF production.”
Türkiye’s civil aviation authority has set new mandates requiring airlines and fuel suppliers to adopt SAF to meet the 2030 emissions target.
