Vietnam has achieved its first milestone in local production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). On October 15, Petrolimex unveiled its domestically produced SAF and signed a supply agreement with Vietjet Air, becoming the first mover toward the goal of “produced in Vietnam, used in Vietnam” and accelerating the aviation sector’s decarbonization efforts.
Petrolimex debuts in-house SAF production
Petrolimex Aviation, the subsidiary in charge of jet fuel production, announced that its Nha Be depot has rolled out SAF, making it the first enterprise in Vietnam to master international blending technology and secure actual production capacity. From importing feedstocks to producing SAF, the process is fully handled in-house.
