DGD's Port Arthur, Texas, facility will supply 1 million gallons of neat SAF, with the option to supply an additional 4 million gallons, in support of a 12-month blended SAF agreement between Valero Marketing and Supply Company (Valero), a subsidiary of Valero Energy Corporation (NYSE: VLO), and World Fuel Services (World Fuel), a World Kinect (NYSE: WKC) company, with ultimate delivery of such blended SAF by World Fuel to JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU).
