Neste Oil committed itself to adopting advanced technologies many years ago and has a long track record in developing lower-emissions traffic fuels. Neste Oil was the first company to offer unleaded and sulfur-free fuels, as well as biofuels, on the Finnish market. Today, Neste Oil produces the world’s cleanest diesel fuel from renewables and is researching a range of new raw materials. Neste Oil’s engineering expertise is also world-class.

The dynamism of Neste Oil’s research and technology activities is based on in-depth know-how, close cooperation between the best people in their fields, and successful partnerships with research institutions and companies. Research and technology operations are based at Porvoo, where close to 1,000 people are employed in work related to R&D and engineering. Having the Porvoo refinery, the Technology Center and its laboratories, and engineering expert, Neste Jacobs, close to each other helps promote collaborative work and creates an innovative environment for world-class R&D.

Progress on new raw materials
A major part of Neste Oil`s annual R&D investments goes to research into renewable raw materials and refining technologies for processing these materials, and accounts for around 70% of overall R&T expenditure. Neste Oil is involved in research in both completely new raw materials – such as microbes, algae, and wood-based biomass – and existing alternatives – such as waste fat from fish processing industry. The company selects the focus of its raw material research based on availability, price, and sustainability.
