DB Cargo UK has provided Gulf Aviation with a full logistics solution to move aviation fuel from Edinburgh to Derby.
The rail freight operator has agreed a three year contract with Gulf Aviation, part of Certas Energy, to transport the fuel and provide the specialist wagons needed to carry it.
The service moves the fuel from the Grangemouth Refinery near Edinburgh to Derby.
Certas Energy, the largest independent fuel and lubricant distributor in the UK, already uses DB Cargo UK’s services to transport fuel from Grangemouth Refinery to Fort William and Lairg in Scotland. The new contract demonstrates the success of the collaboration between the two companies.
Dorian Davies, Account Manager, Chemicals at DB Cargo UK, said:
“This new service strengthens the relationship that we have with Gulf Aviation, a valued customer of DB Cargo UK. We take pride in offering our customers services that meet all of their requirements, whether this is a service from A to B or a full logistical solution.”
Alex Murphy, Head of Gulf Aviation commented:
“At Gulf Aviation, we take great pride in the high level of service we offer to our customers and we know that DB Cargo UK have similar standards hence our collaboration with them.”
