When it comes to refuelling, every second and every cent counts. Inefficiencies in refuelling operations can cause delays, affecting passenger satisfaction and airlines’ profitability. Research from Air Insight suggests that airlines’ operating margins can be improved by 0.43% with every minute saved on the ground.

That’s why Shell Aviation has designed a suite of digital refuelling solutions that share a common goal – improved efficiency, leading to time and cost savings.

We’re pleased to announce our latest refuelling innovation: Shell SkyPad Data Exchange, an automated end-to-end touchless refuelling process enabled through Shell SkyPad. The new functionality of Shell SkyPad Data Exchange enables compatibility with a wide range of airlines’ own digital platforms. It has been enhanced with a new real-time communications tool enabling instant contact between the apron operator, the pilot and the back offices. Allowing them to electronically track, update and exchange fuel figures throughout the refuelling process.

Shell SkyPad Data Exchange will help to deliver smoother and safer operations, enabling faster turn-around time while maximizing accuracy across all aspects of the process by harnessing technology.
