Noida International Airport has awarded Indian
Oil Skytanking Ltd (IOSL) a 30-year concession to design, build, and
operate fuel infrastructure, including
multi-user fuel farm and hydrant system for the airport. This
partnership will help NIA provide aviation turbine fuel cost-efficiently
and under an open access model to its airline partners.
Under
this agreement, IOSL will build facilities which will include 10,000
m3 of fuel-storage tanks with an inbuilt flexibility to increase the
capacity rapidly as per air traffic demand and supported by an
underground hydrant system connecting all aircraft stands, remote and
contact, with fuel pipelines, thereby enhancing safety
of the airside. Keeping to Noida International Airport’s promise of
building an environmentally conscious airport ecosystem and India’s
first truly digital airport, IOSL will be able to accommodate
sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and manage movements via a
digital command and control centre.
Mr. Christoph Schnellmann, Chief Executive Officer, Yamuna International
Airport Private Limited said,
“We
are pleased to partner with Indian Oil Skytanking Ltd (IOSL) for these
key airport facilities. Owing to the strong technical proposal and
best-in-class operating plan, the fuel farm will enable us to provide
cost-effective jet fuel to our partner airlines. Our vision is to
provide quick, efficient processes and best value to passengers,
airlines, and shippers. In line with our focus on sustainable
operations, the fuel farm will provide for sustainable aviation fuel.
We are committed to be India’s leading airport in terms of customer
service, efficiency, digital services and minimal impact to the
environment.”
