DUBAI — Dubai’s Emirates National Oil Company (ENOC) announced the first expansion of its jet fuel network in China with the establishment of 14 airports on Tuesday, demonstrating China’s growing ties with the United Arab Emirates.
The government-owned oil and gas company said the expansion will extend to strategic cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Chengdu.
ENOC Group CEO Saif Humaid Al Falasi said the decision is in accordance with its strategy to fulfill the rising global demand for reliable energy.
“We are at the forefront of delivering world-class sustainable and integrated energy solutions, and expanding our jet fuel network to some of the busiest airports in China is a testament to this,” Falasi said in the Tuesday press release from ENOC, which has 300 airports in 25 countries in the Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia, Europe and now soon to be East Asia.
