About 2.1% of the VLSFO samples analysed by Verifuel in the first quarter of 2023 were found to be off-specification, a company representative tells Ship & Bunker.
The facility is the company's third worldwide, after it opened one in Rotterdam in 2017 and in Houston in 2021.
"it is not hard to see the bunker market at peak or close to peak demand – most certainly from a traditional fossil fuel point of view," says 2050 Marine Energy's Adrian Tolson.
Total sales excluding lubricants slipped by 1.5% on the year to 636,705 m3 in January.
