Direct supply · Port to apron

JET-A fuel supply

We source bulk JET-A directly from refineries and ports across Africa and the Middle East — cutting out intermediaries, delivering competitive pricing, and guaranteeing quality at every uplift.

Why source fuel through Positive Rate?

Most operators pay a premium because their fuel passes through multiple intermediaries before it reaches the aircraft. We go direct — from refinery or port to your pipeline/storage tanks or ship — which means lower cost, shorter lead times, and a single accountable supplier.

Our network spans key hubs across Europe, the Americas, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific. Whether you need a one-time uplift at a remote airfield or a long-term supply agreement for a fleet operation, we structure the arrangement around your requirements.

Transparent pricing

Bulk pricing referenced to Platts

We price all bulk fuel supply against internationally recognised Platts benchmark assessments — the same indices used by refineries, airlines, and trading desks worldwide. Depending on your region and supply route, we reference:

Platts NWENorthwest EuropeThe benchmark for European and North African supply routes. Used for uplifts originating from or transiting through European refinery hubs.

Platts US GulfUS Gulf CoastApplied to supply chains with US Gulf origin or where USGC-linked pricing is preferred by the operator or financier.

Platts APACAsia PacificUsed for East African and Gulf supply routes where Singapore or Asian refinery pricing is the relevant market reference.

All prices are quoted as a differential to the applicable Platts daily assessment ($/mt or ¢/USG). Final pricing is confirmed at time of order based on prevailing market conditions. Contact us to discuss index preference and hedging options for long-term agreements.
