BGN announces strategic MoU with XCF Global to produce and supply SAF
BGN has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with XCF Global. This planned partnership, based in Houston (U.S.), will focus on developing and scaling the production, distribution and logistics of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and other renewable fuels including renewable naphtha and diesel.
Under the MoU, XCF and BGN intend to collaborate on renewable fuel production, marketing, and distribution for major airline carriers around the world. The framework agreement includes offtake and co-branded distribution agreements, as well as joint development of renewable fuel production capacity. In addition, the proposed strategic partnership seeks to promote the use of XCF's SAF within industry trade associations and OEM networks, and throughout the customer value chain.
"We are pleased to be partnering with Houston-based XCF in this exciting venture," said Cenan Ozmeral, President of BGN Int., LLC, based in Houston. "BGN and XCF share a common goal to expand access to renewable fuels and accelerate the decarbonization of the aviation industry. Together, we aim to combine XCF's scalable production model with BGN's marketing and distribution network to create a seamless, efficient supply chain from feedstock to finished fuel.
"BGN's trading strength, risk management expertise, and integrated logistics network, will make SAF adoption practical and commercially viable for airlines seeking to meet tightening decarbonization targets. This is a major step, which we believe will have a significant impact on the aviation industry's ability to reduce emissions, in one of the hardest-to-abate transport sectors."
Aligned with this partnership, BGN has joined the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the leading global trade association for the airline industry, deepening its ties with the sector and demonstrating its long-term commitment to being a top-tier supplier of SAF and renewable fuels.
