Technical Training Course
Over the last few years, Repsol has developed technical training courses geared towards General Aviation customers who have fuel installations for their own use. In these courses, themes including safety, quality, the Environment, legislation and equipment description are covered, as are external presentations.
These courses are designed for company owners from the General Aviation sector and quality, operations, fuel supplies managers or technical managers who are the direct clients of General Aviation fuel.
Repsol offers added value to their business activity, promoting opportunities for meeting and debate forums where companies from the sector can exchange their experiences and visions for the future.
Repsol is committed to the development of General Aviation, to the global maintenance of aviation fuel quality, to operational safety in supplies to aircraft and to the conservation of the Environment minimising the risk of dumping or spillage.
