Shell Aviation launches ACE
The ACE programme from Shell is designed to address customer requirements for safe and effective operations, marketing support for growth, whilst also supplying security and modern up-to-date equipment.
The marketing support element includes joint promotional and marketing materials and Shell Fuel & Fly Card. The supply security portfolio provides customers with access to a global supply and trading network, product quality assurance procedures and experts in fuels and logistics.
Safety operations management gives access to Shell Airport operating manual, Shell HSSE programmes, operations training, technical support and inspection and assessment.
Collaboration with Shell Aviation means dedicated customer care, access to AeroShell Lubricants range and Shell Water Detectors, plus the asset offering extends to supply, management and maintenance of equipment required for business operations.
Shell Aviation has already successfully implemented the ACE programme at key European locations such as Gothenburg City Airport in Sweden, Gazipaca in Turkey, Zurich in Switzerland and Roskilde in Denmark.
Lars Lip, Airport Director, Copenhagen Airport, Roskilde, said: “Being part of the global Shell Aviation network supports our strategy to market Copenhagen Airport, Roskilde (RKE/EKRK), as the preferred Global Aviation (GA) airport in Denmark. Shell actively promotes Copenhagen Airport, Roskilde, to new and existing customers.”

At Shell Aviation, we are not just a fuels and lubricants supplier but a partner that is easy to do business with and offers a package of support. It is our job to ensure our customers have the latest tools and help available to improve their operations and achieve excellence in what they do.”
