Major energy and bunker trader Vitol has launched Vitol Bunkers, which will “offer ship and fleet owners worldwide access to high quality marine fuels, blended to meet required specifications”.
Total bunker sales in Singapore for the first five months of 2021 totalled 21.2 million tonnes, up slightly on the same months in 2020. Most sales were of VLSFO but with HSFO taking about a quarter of the total.
Port of Gibraltar has announced that 1,793 vessels called at the Western Mediterranean hub for bunkers during the first four months of this year. This is higher than the 1,691 calls recorded for the equivalent period in 2020.
