TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, April 16. Saneg, Uzbekistan's oil and gas company, has announced the creation of a new subsidiary, Saneg JetWhites, which will focus on the sale of both domestically produced and imported aviation fuel, Trend reports.
Saneg JetWhites will operate as the distributor for the Fergana Oil Refinery’s products, including aviation fuels TS-1, JET A-1, and semi-synthetic aviation kerosene SSF. These products meet both national and international quality standards.
“The establishment of Saneg JetWhites is not just an expansion of our corporate structure but the creation of a full-fledged platform capable of becoming a reliable partner for airlines. We are ready to offer stable supply volumes, high product quality, and flexible logistics. Our refueling complex in Tashkent already has the capacity to process up to 400,000 tons of fuel per year — about 80 percent of the total demand for aviation fuel in the country. We understand the scale of the challenges facing the industry and are systematically building national-level infrastructure. This is a new phase in the development of Saneg’s vertically integrated model,” said Tulkin Yusupov, CEO of the company.
As part of the development of the refinery, plans are in place to increase production of semi-synthetic kerosene SSF to 240,000 tons per year by 2025, with a target of 500,000 tons by 2030, covering a significant portion of the domestic demand of Uzbek airlines.
In addition to supplying its own fuel, Saneg JetWhites will regularly deliver imported aviation kerosene in volumes of up to 5,000–10,000 tons per month. These supplies will meet the needs of foreign airlines operating flights to Uzbekistan and allow for a flexible response to peak demand periods.
Saneg (Sanoat Energetika Guruhi) is one of Uzbekistan's largest vertically integrated oil and gas businesses, producing 80 percent of the country's oil output from 103 fields (tons of oil per day). Saneg is the executor of Uzbekistan's national strategy to boost oil production, which puts the country on pace to produce up to 2 million tons per year by 2030.
