GSE Lease

GSE Lease is a ground support equipment (GSE) leasing company in Saudi Arabia. It serves airports, airlines and ground handling operators, and says its aim is to become a provider of GSE leasing across Africa and Asia. The company says it has over 15 years of experience in the aviation industry.

Equipment

The fleet is described as motorized and non-motorized equipment. Listed types are pushback tractors, passenger steps, air power units, air conditioning units, baggage loaders, aircraft tugs and ground power units (GPUs).

Leasing options

• Short term and on-demand rental, and long term leases
• Wet and dry lease arrangements
• Take-back of customers' existing equipment from their fleets
• Fleet optimization and fleet management
• Maintenance and support, including scheduled maintenance, repairs and 24/7 support

The company says leasing lowers the up-front investment for operators and gives predictable monthly costs, and that many agreements include maintenance.

Why operators lease

On its website the company lists lower up-front investment, reduced depreciation risk, predictable monthly costs and the ability to scale a fleet up or down as the main reasons operators lease instead of owning. It presents leasing as a way to keep GSE spending off the balance sheet and to improve financial ratios.
