Aviation

Airlines expect to welcome circa 3.6 billion passengers in 2016 (source: IATA). The provision of fuel for these flights forms a significant part of the downstream business for many oil companies, into-plane agents and airlines.
Our publications are produced to assist in the reliable and safe provision of jet fuel to commercial aircrafts. Due to the international nature of the aviation refuelling business, the EI's aviation publications have global implications and worldwide input.
