據(jù)美國(guó)鉆井地帶網(wǎng)站2023年6月20日?qǐng)?bào)道，法國(guó)能源巨頭道達(dá)爾能源已著手加大其可持續(xù)航空燃料(SAF)的生產(chǎn)，在多個(gè)項(xiàng)目上投資超過7.4億歐元(8.08億美元)。此舉是道達(dá)爾能源對(duì)其航空客戶呼聲的回應(yīng)。

道達(dá)爾能源表示，從2028年起，該公司將能夠年產(chǎn)50萬噸SAF，并補(bǔ)充說，這將足以滿足逐步增加的歐洲SAF混合要求，到2030年將達(dá)到6%。

道達(dá)爾能源在聲明中表示，該公司將投資4億歐元將Grandpuits工廠改造成一個(gè)零原油平臺(tái)，主要專注于從動(dòng)物脂肪和廢食用油等循環(huán)原料中生產(chǎn)SAF。到2025年，Grandpuits工廠將能夠年產(chǎn)21萬噸的SAF，并且已經(jīng)宣布了一項(xiàng)新的投資，到2027年將再年產(chǎn)7.5萬噸SAF。

6月初，道達(dá)爾能源表示將把Grandpuits工廠的SAF產(chǎn)量增加一倍，使該基地的SAF年產(chǎn)能達(dá)到28.5萬噸，幾乎是2020年宣布產(chǎn)能的兩倍。

在諾曼底地區(qū)，道達(dá)爾能源表示已開始在其Gonfreville煉油廠從廢棄食用油中協(xié)同加工SAF。道達(dá)爾能源公司計(jì)劃從2025年起將該工廠的SAF年產(chǎn)量提高到4萬噸。此外，在與航空合作伙伴開展技術(shù)工作之后，一旦這種生產(chǎn)方法得到ASTM的批準(zhǔn)，道達(dá)爾能源將通過共同加工拉梅德生物廠生產(chǎn)的HVO生物柴油，額外年產(chǎn)15萬噸SAF。

在拉梅德工廠，道達(dá)爾能源表示已投資3.4億歐元將這個(gè)工廠改造為生物煉油廠。在拉梅德生產(chǎn)的生物柴油已經(jīng)在勒阿弗爾附近道達(dá)爾能源的烏達(dá)勒工廠用于生產(chǎn)SAF。道達(dá)爾能源公司補(bǔ)充說，它正在研究一項(xiàng)新的投資，在2024年，在拉梅的工廠有能力處理100%來自循環(huán)經(jīng)濟(jì)的廢物(用過的食用油和動(dòng)物脂肪)，通過共同加工生產(chǎn)生物燃料和SAF。

道達(dá)爾能源的聲明稱，除法國(guó)外，道達(dá)爾能源的目標(biāo)是到2030年在歐洲、美國(guó)、日本和韓國(guó)的生產(chǎn)單位年產(chǎn)150萬噸的SAF，到那時(shí)占世界市場(chǎng)的10%。

道達(dá)爾能源董事長(zhǎng)兼首席執(zhí)行官潘彥磊表示，道達(dá)爾能源正在采取行動(dòng)，以滿足航空業(yè)減少碳足跡的強(qiáng)勁需求。SAF對(duì)于減少航空運(yùn)輸?shù)亩趸寂欧胖陵P(guān)重要，其發(fā)展完全符合公司的氣候目標(biāo)，即到2050年與社會(huì)一起實(shí)現(xiàn)凈零排放。

TotalEnergies Investing In Multiple SAF Projects

TotalEnergies has set the wheels in motion to increase its sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production, with over €740 million ($808 million) of investment in multiple projects. The move comes as a response to calls from its aviation customers.

From 2028, the company said it will be in a position to produce half a million tons of SAF, adding that this would be enough to cover the gradual increase in the European SAF blending mandate, set at six percent for 2030.

The company said in its statement that it will invest €400 million to convert the Grandpuits site into a zero-crude platform, primarily focused on producing SAF from circular feedstock such as animal fat and used cooking oil. Grandpuits will be able to produce 210,000 tons/y of SAF as of 2025, and a new investment has been announced to produce a further 75,000 tons/y by 2027.

Earlier in June, TotalEnergies said it will be doubling SAF production at Grandpuits, bringing the site’s annual production capacity to 285,000 tons, i.e. almost double the capacity announced in 2020.

In Normandy, TotalEnergies said it has started co-processing SAF from used cooking oil at its Gonfreville refinery. The company plans to increase annual production at the site to 40,000 tons from 2025. In addition, following technical work carried out with its aeronautical partners, TotalEnergies will produce an additional 150,000 tons/y of SAF by co-processing HVO biodiesel produced at La Mède as soon as this production method is approved by the ASTM.

At La Mède, TotalEnergies said it has invested €340 million to convert its refinery into a biorefinery. Biodiesel produced at La Mède is already being used to make SAF at the TotalEnergies Oudalle plant near Le Havre. TotalEnergies added it is studying a new investment to have the capacity to process at La Mède, by 2024, 100 percent waste from the circular economy (used cooking oil and animal fat) to produce biofuels and SAF by co-processing.

Beyond France, TotalEnergies aims to produce 1.5 million tons/y of SAF by 2030 at production units in Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea, representing 10 percent of the world market by that date, the company’s statement reads.

"TotalEnergies is taking action to meet the strong demand from the aviation industry to reduce its carbon footprint. Sustainable aviation fuel is essential to reducing the CO2 emissions of air transport, and its development is fully aligned with the Company's climate ambition to get to net zero by 2050, together with society," said Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TotalEnergies.
