PETRONAS has successfully delivered Malaysia’s first blended Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) to KL International Airport (KLIA) for the Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG), establishing PETRONAS’ in-house capability and readiness to provide continuous, scalable supply in Malaysia.
Locally blended at PETRONAS’ blending facilities, the International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC)-certified SAF, which meets CORSIA-eligible fuel requirements, was delivered directly to KLIA via Malaysian Refining Company’s (MRCSB) multi-product pipeline, ensuring readily available SAF through its integrated supply chain.
“PETRONAS recognises its role in driving the global push towards decarbonisation, especially in progressing Malaysia’s net-zero ambition as a key enabler contributing to the development of future fuels. Decarbonising the aviation industry requires reliable pathways, and SAF represents one of the most immediate solutions available today.
This pilot project is a strategic long-term investment to build in-house capabilities through advancements in technology and infrastructure, as well as talent development to deliver reliable, cost-effective solutions to our partners and customers,” said Ahmad Adly Alias, Vice President of Refining, Marketing and Trading, PETRONAS.
“This achievement has also effectively positioned us ahead in supporting the government’s targets for SAF under the 13th Malaysia Plan, reinforcing our commitment to national energy security and industrial growth,” he added.
The SAF will be uplifted for Malaysia Airlines’ daily late evening MH2 service from Kuala Lumpur to London between 1st to 16th September 2025, marking a tangible step in integrating SAF into its regular operations.
