Cairn convert to HVO Fuel across all sites

We are proud to announce our partnership with On-site Refueling to supply us with Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) for use in plant and machinery across all of our sites in Ireland. 

HVO renewable diesel is a drop-in-ready biofuel that is produced using organic matter or biomass such as vegetable oils or waste feedstocks and processed by hydrogenation (treated with hydrogen), making it chemically identical to traditional diesel.

This switch to HVO will deliver Cairn a reduction in Scope 1 CO2 emissions and other harmful pollutants and will contribute towards the ongoing decarbonisation of the construction industry.  Switching to HVO is one of the many routes we are exploring in our determination to safeguard success in reaching Sustainability goals and targets. Cairn have worked closely with On-site Refueling to procure a secure supply of certified and sustainably sourced HVO, and will continue to do so throughout the partnership.

Adeola Ogunsina, COO, said: "On-site Refueling offers direct-to-equipment and direct-to-vehicle refueling with ISO certified fuel management technology solutions across Ireland. We serve a diverse range of markets including construction, commercial transport, government agencies, food distribution and airports.”

On-site refueling is supporting Cairn's drive toward a circular economy and decarbonisation in their construction activities. We understand that a reliable service remains critical regardless of the product, therefore we are glad to kick off our sustainability partnership with Cairn by introducing renewable HVO supply with the same quality service our customers have become accustomed to".
