OMV, Lufthansa Group further strengthen partnership with SAF

MoU to supply a total of more than 800,000 tons Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) between 2023 and 2030.

OMV and Lufthansa Group have signed a Memorandum of Understanding for the supply of more than 800,000 tons of Sustainable Aviation Fuel for the years 2023 to 2030. The companies intend to expand their existing partnership and extend it to include new locations for SAF production and delivery as well as new SAF production technologies.

With the expansion of the cooperation, the Lufthansa Group promotes the availability, market ramp-up and use of SAF as essential elements for a CO2 neutral future of aviation.

OMV sees Sustainable Aviation Fuel as an important portfolio upgrade to its jet fuel range. The company is implementing numerous measures to achieve its ambitious strategic sustainability goals, and SAF significantly contributes to its transformation. The planned scale up of SAF production to 700,000 tons in 2030 will play an important role in achieving these goals.

Sustainable Aviation Fuel is produced by OMV by co-processing sustainable and regional raw materials, specifically used cooking oil.
