In this oil document I'm translating, I keep coming across references to "Avio depots" or, often, "AVIO depots". What would these be, in relation to the oil business? I have absolutely no context, other than a list of depots. I can't name the depot(s) because of client privacy.

Denominazione e classificazione dei combustibili usati in aviazione
I combustibili avio sono composti essenzialmente da idrocarburi; la varietà di questi ultimi determina il tipo e il grado di un combustibile.
La suddivisione principale è quella relativa all'uso del combustibile per i due tipi di motori avio: motori alternativi ad accensione per scintilla (motori a scoppio) e motori a turbina (turboelica e turbogetto).
Si ha pertanto la seguente suddivisione:
benzina avio (Aviation Gasolin ovvero Av Gas)
kerosene (denominazione generica dei Jet Fuels )

Well, it's the same one with a new name :
Avio was formerly the aerospace arm of FiatAvio SpA, the leading Italian manufacturer of aircraft and naval engines. In September 2003, The Carlyle Group and Finmeccanica acquired Avio from Fiat Group for approximately €1.6 billion. Carlyle owns 70 percent and Finmeccanica owns the remainder.
