Lille Airport in the north of France has named Shell Aviation its sole fuel provider. Shell’s Avitair subsidiary was awarded a 10-year contract to operate the airport’s fuel storage facilities and provide into-plane services at the airport, its eighth location in France. “This is an important milestone for our business in Europe as we aim to expand at key locations with high growth potential such as Lille,” said Melanie Lane, Shell Aviation’s general manager for Europe.
