Italy’s largest independent supplier of bunkers has taken its first delivery of 0.5% very low sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO) for sale to Mediterranean vessel operators at the ports of Augusta and Civitavecchia.
Bunker Energy, which is backed by financial holding company FinGo & Fuel and is a rebranded unit of Maxcom Bunker, aims to start selling to clients who want to start trials of using the IMO 2020 compliant fuel as soon as it has flushed out delivery hoses and pumps.
