Intertek has performed the final quality control testing for the jet biofuel blend, a new fuel that was partially converted from biomass.
The airline received jet fuel quality testing services from Intertek’s Sharjah petroleum and fuels laboratory for more than two years.
Intertek said its international sampling and testing network will assist to ensure that fuel quality of aviation fuel supply chain is maintained.
Intertek analytical assessment business line general manager Robert Tawil said, "The company is proud to be associated with Etihad Airways’ successful jet biofuel project.
"Intertek has a long-standing presence in the United Arab Emirates and the Gulf, offering petroleum and chemical testing and inspection services as well as a wide range of regulatory and technical services," Tawil added.
