据美国钻井地带网站2023年6月20日报道，法国能源巨头道达尔能源已着手加大其可持续航空燃料(SAF)的生产，在多个项目上投资超过7.4亿欧元(8.08亿美元)。此举是道达尔能源对其航空客户呼声的回应。

道达尔能源表示，从2028年起，该公司将能够年产50万吨SAF，并补充说，这将足以满足逐步增加的欧洲SAF混合要求，到2030年将达到6%。

道达尔能源在声明中表示，该公司将投资4亿欧元将Grandpuits工厂改造成一个零原油平台，主要专注于从动物脂肪和废食用油等循环原料中生产SAF。到2025年，Grandpuits工厂将能够年产21万吨的SAF，并且已经宣布了一项新的投资，到2027年将再年产7.5万吨SAF。

6月初，道达尔能源表示将把Grandpuits工厂的SAF产量增加一倍，使该基地的SAF年产能达到28.5万吨，几乎是2020年宣布产能的两倍。

在诺曼底地区，道达尔能源表示已开始在其Gonfreville炼油厂从废弃食用油中协同加工SAF。道达尔能源公司计划从2025年起将该工厂的SAF年产量提高到4万吨。此外，在与航空合作伙伴开展技术工作之后，一旦这种生产方法得到ASTM的批准，道达尔能源将通过共同加工拉梅德生物厂生产的HVO生物柴油，额外年产15万吨SAF。

在拉梅德工厂，道达尔能源表示已投资3.4亿欧元将这个工厂改造为生物炼油厂。在拉梅德生产的生物柴油已经在勒阿弗尔附近道达尔能源的乌达勒工厂用于生产SAF。道达尔能源公司补充说，它正在研究一项新的投资，在2024年，在拉梅的工厂有能力处理100%来自循环经济的废物(用过的食用油和动物脂肪)，通过共同加工生产生物燃料和SAF。

道达尔能源的声明称，除法国外，道达尔能源的目标是到2030年在欧洲、美国、日本和韩国的生产单位年产150万吨的SAF，到那时占世界市场的10%。

道达尔能源董事长兼首席执行官潘彦磊表示，道达尔能源正在采取行动，以满足航空业减少碳足迹的强劲需求。SAF对于减少航空运输的二氧化碳排放至关重要，其发展完全符合公司的气候目标，即到2050年与社会一起实现净零排放。

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.
