Sinopec is today one of the world's leading energy and petrochemical groups, holding a significant position in the global aviation fuel supply chain. In Vietnam, Skypec supplies Jet A-1 to airlines operating flights to and from every airport across the country, while also extending its supply operations to a number of international airports.
The partnership between the two companies was established in 1998 and has been maintained without interruption for 28 years. Throughout this period, Sinopec has consistently been one of Skypec's key strategic partners in the import of Jet A-1 fuel, contributing to the stability and continuity of supply – a decisive factor in an industry that demands stringent quality standards and precise delivery schedules. Sustained cooperation through successive cycles of volatility in the regional energy market has built a solid foundation of trust between the two parties.

Immediately following the working session at the Northern Region Branch, the delegation proceeded to the apron to observe aircraft refuelling operations first-hand. The delegation witnessed the refuelling of flight VN251 by a Skypec refuelling truck. Observing both refuelling methods in practice gave the delegation a concrete perspective on the operating procedures, safety standards and service quality that Skypec applies.
