Muscat: OQ has partnered with DHL Express by joining the GoGreen Plus programme, marking a significant step towards low-carbon logistics through the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) for DHL’s cargo shipments entering and leaving Oman. This move is part of OQ’s ongoing commitment to sustainability and carbon reduction.

According to Oman News Agency, this initiative aligns with OQ’s long-term strategy to achieve carbon neutrality. Sustainable Aviation Fuel is derived from renewable resources such as used cooking oil and sugarcane, and can reduce carbon emissions by up to 30 percent compared to conventional jet fuel.

By joining GoGreen Plus, OQ reaffirms its role as a future-focused energy company that places sustainability at the core of its operations. The programme has recently garnered a sustainability award, recognizing its environmental value and contribution to advancing greener supply chain solutions.

The partnership is part of OQ’s broader sustainability agenda, which includes a comprehensive decarbonization roadmap, adoption of clean energy, modernization of logistics systems, and investment in circular economy projects.

In 2024, OQ signed a Memorandum of Understanding with a global alliance to explore the potential for producing sustainable fuels for land and air transport in Oman. The study aims to assess commercial viability and the possibility of establishing production facilities for electric and SAF using hydrogen and carbon dioxide.
