Shell Aviation has invested in a brand new jet fuel depot at Paris Beauvais Tillé Airport (l’Aéroport de Paris-Beauvais-Tillé – BVA), which is one of the ten busiest airports in France by passenger number. The new depot, set out over 8000m² of land, offers three times the storage capacity compared to the former facilities, increasing supply security at the airport. Shell Aviation has been present at Paris Beauvais Tillé Airport for more than 60 years and the company’s subsidiary, Avitair is the sole operator at the airport with responsibility for the fuel storage facilities and into-plane services. Beauvais Airport, located near the city of Beauvais in northern France serves over 4 million passengers each year. In addition to the many commercial airlines that use the airport on a regular basis, Beauvais serves as one of the main French airports for Ryanair, whose leading supplier in France and Europe is Shell Aviation. The new, expanded depot enables Beauvais to meet current customer demand while also providing supply security for the airport’s future growth. The new depot includes six 120 m3 capacity Jet A1 tanks and three discharging and loading pumps.
