Bunkering & Marine Fuel Supply

Bunkering and marine fuel suppliers deliver the fuel that powers a vessel's main and auxiliary engines — most commonly VLSFO (very low sulphur fuel oil) and MGO (marine gas oil) meeting the MARPOL Annex VI 0.50% global sulphur cap, plus HSFO for ships fitted with exhaust-gas scrubbers. Delivery is by bunker barge alongside, by road tanker at the berth, or by pipeline, and is documented with a bunker delivery note recording quantity, density, and grade.

Suppliers typically arrange representative sampling for independent fuel-quality testing, since off-spec bunkers can damage machinery and trigger disputes over quantity or quality. Because bunkers are usually the single largest operating cost of a voyage, buyers compare quotes closely on price per tonne, grade availability at the port, barge availability, and delivery timing against the ship's schedule. It sits within the Bunkering, Fuel & Fluids category group on PortProcure.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How is marine fuel specified when arranging a bunker stem?

A stem is specified by grade and quantity — typically VLSFO, LSMGO, or MGO to meet the MARPOL Annex VI 0.50% sulphur limit, or 0.10% inside an emission control area — plus the delivery port and vessel readiness. The supplier confirms availability, price, and barge or shore delivery against the vessel's schedule.

What documentation comes with a bunker delivery?

Each delivery is accompanied by a bunker delivery note recording grade, quantity, and density, and a representative fuel sample is drawn and sealed as the retained sample the vessel keeps. These support quality claims and MARPOL compliance if the fuel is later disputed.

How does bunkering differ from marine lubricant supply?

Bunkering delivers the fuel oils that propel and power the vessel, usually by barge or shore pipeline in bulk. Lubricants — cylinder, system, hydraulic, and gear oils — are a separate category supplied in drums, totes, or bulk against the engine maker's grade. Buyers arrange each separately.
