Mabanaft Breaks Into Oslo Airport Fueling Clique

摘要

German trader Mabanaft is trying to break into Europe’s cliquey aircraft fueling business, spending €10 million ($11.3 million) to build a new rail receiving terminal at Oslo’s Gardermoen Airport. Mabanaft has set up a brand new subsidiary — Mabanaft Energy Scandinavia (Mesas) — to supply fuel to planes using the airport. Its initial customers are German airline Lufthansa and Norwegian Air Shuttle, with the first fuel delivered to the airport on Jul. 1. Another Mabanaft subsidiary is already active at 13 airports in the UK.
