Liège Airport digitises aircraft refuelling in 15-year deal with i6 Group

Share

Liège Airport has brought its fuel storage, truck dispatch and aircraft refuelling operations onto a single digital platform under a 15-year partnership with i6 Group. The system tracks fuel in real time from storage tank to aircraft wing.

Refuelling teams use mobile devices connected directly to fuel meters. Operators must validate checks at each stage, while dispatchers can see fuel requests, deliveries and stock levels in the same system. The airport says this will improve traceability and reduce manual errors. The platform also feeds data into the airport’s other systems and is intended to support future fuel deliveries by barge.

The rollout covers the entire fuel operation at Liège, where the airport is the sole provider of fuel storage and aircraft refuelling. Liège handled more than 1.3 million tonnes of freight across 29,000 cargo flights in 2025.
