Working conditions

DSL-01 and the associated employment conditions are currently under active development. The HR team is working on a suitable and competitive package for the location in Delfzijl.

Description of the organization

In Delfzijl, we are building DSL-01, a SkyNRG renewable fuels plant that produces Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) using HEFA technology from residual streams such as used fats and oils.

In addition, by-products such as butane, propane, and naphtha are produced. DSL-01 will be the first plant in Europe fully focused on SAF and associated sustainable by-products.

The plant has a targeted annual production of 100.000 tonnes of SAF and 35.000 tonnes of by-products, aiming for a chain reduction of greenhouse gases of approximately 80% compared to fossil kerosene.

Construction started in 2026 and the first production is scheduled for 2028. The project includes the factory itself, associated pipelines, and temporary work sites.

We work in accordance with international standards and Dutch laws and regulations; safety, sustainability, and collaboration are central.
