Shell secures long-term offtake agreements for sustainable fuels in Asia and Africa
What happened
Shell Trading Rotterdam B.V., a subsidiary of Shell plc, signed a long-term products offtake agreement with Green Sky Manara LLC for a planned facility in Port Nador, Morocco. This deal grants Shell exclusive rights for approximately 150,000 tons per year of sustainable aviation fuel or equivalent hydrogenated vegetable oil. These agreements also include arrangements for SAF supply from plants in Pakistan and follow an earlier arrangement linked to a planned facility in Egypt.

Why it matters
The agreements support Shell’s strategy by helping customers access low-carbon fuels while building resilient and commercially viable supply chains. Access to reliable SAF supply remains a key challenge for the aviation sector as demand grows. Shell’s approach connects feedstock, producers, infrastructure, and customers through long-term agreements.
