This strategic site enables efficient integration with existing infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>The Montreal airport fuel terminal will receive jet fuel by ship and store it in a tank located near the seaway. Fuel will then be transported to the airports by pipeline, rail, or truck, using a railcar and tanker truck loading station.<\/p>\n<p>These facilities will enable the MIFFC to diversify its fuel supply sources, expand distribution options, and strengthen the safety, reliability, and efficiency of the jet fuel transport network. Air transport is entirely dependent on jet fuel, for which no viable option currently exists\u2014or is expected in the medium term. Based on a study (published in July 2025) done by <a href=\"https:\/\/www150.statcan.gc.ca\/n1\/daily-quotidien\/250828\/dq250828d-eng.htm?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">Stats Canada<\/a>, Canada\u2019s eight largest airports have posted higher volumes of passenger traffic year over year since 2024, and seven out of eight have seen growth since 2019 (prior to the pandemic). With air traffic rising and the average passenger volume exceeding pre-pandemic levels, securing a robust, resilient supply is critical.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-9s9vw-a17522b7e63c370ef188ae51358c07a0 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_one_half  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div  '     ><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='after_section_2'  class='main_color av_default_container_wrap container_wrap sidebar_right'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-724'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":431,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-724","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carburantaeroportuairemontreal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/724","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carburantaeroportuairemontreal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carburantaeroportuairemontreal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carburantaeroportuairemontreal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carburantaeroportuairemontreal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=724"}],"version-history":[{"count":15,"href":"https:\/\/carburantaeroportuairemontreal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/724\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2219,"href":"https:\/\/carburantaeroportuairemontreal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/724\/revisions\/2219"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carburantaeroportuairemontreal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/431"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carburantaeroportuairemontreal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=724"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
