Preem will revamp a major refinery unit in Lysekil, Sweden which will use Topsoe technology and have a capacity of 1.2 million cubic meters per year (22,000 barrels per day) for the production of sustainable aviation fuel and renewable diesel.

The demand for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is rapidly growing. According to the International Energy Agency’s Net Zero Scenario, over 10% of fuel consumption in aviation by 2030 needs to be SAF to stay on course for net zero CO2 emissions by 2050.

Peter Abrahamsson, Director of Sustainable Development at Preem, said: “We’re thrilled about the revamp of Lysekil refinery, which is one of the most significant climate investments in Sweden. The demand for sustainable aviation fuels is increasing rapidly, and we are already in dialogue with several major airlines. With this investment, Preem takes another decisive step in the transition from fossil to renewable production. We’re happy to continue working with Topsoe on increasing renewable fuels production.”
