Pertamina unit to produce ISCC-certified SAF in 1Q
Kilang Pertamina Internasional, the refinery unit of Indonesia's state-owned energy firm Pertamina, aims to produce its first certified sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in the first quarter of this year, the company said on Thursday.
The firm received certification for SAF in December, including the International Sustainability Carbon Certification(ISCC) Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) and ISCC Europe Union (EU) certification.
It will produce SAF using the treated distillate hydrotreating unit at its Cilacap refinery.
"KPI is ready to move forward by producing the first ISCC-certified Pertamina SAF in Indonesia and in the region with used cooking oil as the raw material which is scheduled in the first quarter of 2025," KPI spokesperson Hermansyah Y. Nasroen said in a statement.
KPI had said its green refinery Cilacap has capacity to process 6,000 bpd of used cooking oil to produce hydrotreated vegetable oil and SAF with a total output estimated at about 300,000 kiloliters per year.
