Aircraft Refueling
Rosneft entered the aircraft refueling business at the end of 2008. The Company’s aircraft refueling services are provided through a subsidiary, RN-Aero, and extend to nearly all regions of Russia, thanks to the wide geographical distribution of Company refineries.
The Company makes direct deliveries of jet fuel to numerous companies, including: Aeroflot, Transaero, Sibir, Vladivostok Avia, UTAir, Volga-Dnepr, Yamal, Yakutia, Kuban Airlines, Taimyr, KrasAvia, Orenburg Airlines, Severny Veter, Turukhan, Moskovia, Donavia, Rusline AK, Rossiya, Ural Airlines, Abakan Avia, RusLine, Aerologic, and others. Sales of jet fuel under direct contracts totaled 497,000 tonnes in 2010, which is 19% more than in 2009.
Rosneft continued to offer ‘into-plane’ refueling services in 2010 at airports serving Mineralnye Vody, Elista, Krasnoyarsk, Irkutsk, Blagoveshchensk, and Igarka, and started to provide this service at Komsomolsk-on-Amur and at the Vankor and Verkhnechonsk fields. Into-plane refueling volumes in 2010 were 79,260 tonnes, which is more than double the amount in 2009.
