FUJAIRAH DATA: April bunker sales up 7.1% on month
Bunker fuel sales at the UAE’s Port of Fujairah in April rose 7.1% month on month, led by gains in low sulfur fuel oil and low sulfur marine gasoil.
Total sales rose to 679,338 cu m from 634,045 cu m in March, according to Fujairah Oil Industry Zone data provided exclusively on the S&P Global Platts website. It was the first rise in at least two months.
Singapore, the world’s largest bunkering hub, saw a 1.4% rise in April sales on the month, led by a 9.9% gain in high sulfur bunker fuel. However, the Asian port’s figures are not directly comparable since Singapore bunker sales are by weight in mt.
