Allied Biofuels has disclosed planned export routes that would carry sustainable aviation fuel from its proposed facility in Uzbekistan to customers in Europe and the United Arab Emirates via rail and sea corridors crossing Kazakhstan, the Caspian Sea, the Black Sea, and the Suez Canal, according to The Times of Central Asia.
Logistics Agreements and Multimodal Transport Networks
The planned routes are set out in a logistics agreement with Latvia-based Pro Logistic Services. The agreement was signed during the 5th Tashkent International Investment Forum in June and announced on July 20, according to The Times of Central Asia. The pact covers the future transport of sustainable aviation fuel and electro-synthetic sustainable aviation fuel (e-SAF), rather than immediate exports.
Production facilities are not yet built, and commercial fuel supplies are expected to begin in 2030, according to reporting by The Times of Central Asia. Pro Logistic Services will design and implement a multimodal transport network under the agreement. This network covers dedicated rail tank cars, port handling, freight forwarding, and marine shipping to coordinate delivery from the project site in Uzbekistan to customers in Europe, the UAE, and other markets, the report added.
