“The filling station located at Izmir Adnan Menderes Airport, which received an EPDC license after being refurbished and licensed by SOCAR Aviation, has two 750 cubic meters of aviation fuel. The station, built on a total area of ​​2,500 square meters, has an annual refueling volume of 182,000 cubic meters with the existing infrastructure. This capacity meets 60 percent of the airport's total demand. In this context, it is planned to supply fuel for 9,000 aircraft a year,” reads the message.

SOCAR Aviation, which continues to invest in the refueling industry, plans to launch new refueling complexes in the future.
