What happened
KBR and Keppel signed a Memorandum of Intent to collaborate on decarbonization technologies in Singapore, including biofuels and Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). The partnership leverages PureSAF technology, which was developed by Swedish Biofuels AB and exclusively licensed by KBR worldwide. The proposed facility is expected to have a production capacity of up to 100,000 tons of SAF per year, pending final investment decisions and regulatory approvals.

Why it matters
The collaboration supports Singapore’s ambition to become Asia’s leading SAF hub. KBR stated that PureSAF is a feedstock-flexible technology designed to deliver a 100% drop in jet fuel, allowing the aviation industry to transition to low-carbon jet fuel with a cost-optimized approach.
PureSAF technology is seeking regulatory approval for commercial deployment in Europe, with KBR serving as the exclusive partner.
