ENOC Aviation voted best regional jet fuel supplier
Posted: 8 December 2003
ENOC Aviation has been voted best international jet fuel marketer
in the Middle East and Africa by major airlines based in the Asia
Pacific region.
Airlines in the Middle East, Africa and North America regions also
voted ENOC Aviation the second best regional marketer.
The rankings came in the annual industry benchmark survey conducted
by Armbrust Aviation Group magazine, Jet Fuel Report, one of the
most respected independent airline industry surveys in the world.
Armbrust’s research is renowned throughout the aviation industry,
with 78 global airlines submitting a response. This represents 67
per cent of the world's total jet fuel sales.
Hussain Sultan, ENOC Group Chief Executive and Board Member, said:
“This result reflects ENOC's professional marketing approach
and effective customer service support. To achieve this rank from
some of the world’s major airlines, against other players
who have been in the business for a long time, is testament to our
commitment to be the energy partner of choice to the jet fuel industry.”
ENOC Aviation began trading in 1997. During this short period,
it has quickly risen to become a respected player in its operating
marks. It was the first aviation supplier to introduce ISO 14001-compliant
operations in Dubai.
ENOC aviation in coordination with its operations company EPPCO
aviation will continue supporting its customers by providing the
latest of operating fuelling equipment and introducing new aircraft
servicing equipment. To reflect commitment to the environment and
stake holders, ENOC Aviation introduced ‘SkyCart’ in
2001, the world’s first environmentally friendly hydrant cart
which operates by solar power. A second ‘SkyCart’ with
even more advanced features, improving ease of operation, safety,
reliability, automated delivery and ticket processing at ramp was
added 2002.
ENOC Aviation and its operations company EPPCO Aviation are planning
to further invest into a range of projects aimed at upgrading its
facilities, to better meet the requirements of the UAE’s growing
aviation industry.
Aviation fuel consumption in Dubai, as of November 2003, has registered
a growth of 28.2% over 2002. Conservative estimates for future growth
predict a 15% year-on-year increase.
“We are currently evaluating Dubai International Airport’s
future needs up to 2020. Plans are afoot to augment facilities along
the entire supply chain in order to ensure ENOC is ready to meet
its obligation towards Dubai International’s future needs
in a most reliable, environmentally safe and cost effective manner,”
said Sultan.
“We are also pursuing several overseas joint ventures. We
have a few collaborative agreements in place and constantly look
for new opportunities in the Middle East, Africa and South East
Asia to tap synergies with potential partners.”
ENOC Aviation’s contribution to the industry was acknowledged
last year with the receipt of Dubai Civil Aviation’s (DCA)
‘Superior Performance Award’, during the fourth DCA
Annual Suppliers Forum.
